SMART LIST: Pop culture talking points
The new "Harry Potter" movie may be delayed, but at least we can talk about: "The Tales of Beedle the Bard."

The new "Harry Potter" movie may be delayed, but at least we can talk about: "The Tales of Beedle the Bard."
It's J.K. Rowling's new book of short fable-style stories set in 16th century Muggle society, a time before the wizarding world went into hiding (as they are in the "Harry Potter" novels). Thankfully, Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore puts the collection in context for modern Muggle readers, noting that "Beedle was somewhat out of step with his times in preaching a message of brotherly love for Muggles."
