In Chamber of Secrets this is Tom Riddle, Jr.’s diary. Louise Freeman wrote in 2019 that the most important parallel between Chamber and Silkworm is that they are both “centered on the havoc wreaked by a mysterious autobiographical book.”

This list will be woefully incomplete and is written largely to serve as an invitation to you to jump in via the comment boxes and share all the parallels I missed - or parallels with other Potter books or to question the entire Parallel Series Idea.

If you think, as several writers here do, that Charlotte Campbell is the Strike series Voldemort and Jonny Rokeby either the Dumbledore stand-in, the Severus Snape parallel, or both, previous PSI study will be an important touchstone and starting point for your speculation about Strike6.Īfter the jump, then, a listing of the parallels between The Silkworm, easily Rowling’s most self-consciously literary or ‘meta’ work to date, and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, my favorite stand-alone novel in the Hogwarts Saga. When these posts are up, I will create a PSI Pillar Post for ease of access and referencing as Serious Strikers prepare for the release of Ink Black Heart. Yesterday I posted six parallels between Cuckoo’s Calling and Philosopher’s Stone, today I hope to write up the parallels first spotted in 2014 between The Silkworm and Chamber of Secrets, and deo volente we will soon after have a third post about Career of Evil and Prisoner of Azkaban. The challenge before us is that the PSI thesis has only been demonstrated or even explored in any depth with respect to the parallels in Lethal White to Goblet of Fire and those in Troubled Blood to Order of the Phoenix.

PSI has become something of a ‘given’ or premise in speculation about what is coming in the series it is assumed here, for instance, that Ink Black Heart will echo in important ways Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (see Louise Freeman’s first efforts along these lines, First Flip of the Tarot Cards: Louise’s Predictions for Strike 6) and Strike7 will be something of a finale for the first seven Strike books akin to Deathly Hallows. ‘PSI’ stands for ‘Parallel Series Idea,’ which, as explained yesterday, is the thesis generated at HogwartsProfessor in 2014 that Rowling-Galbraith is writing the Cormoran Strike novels in parallel with their respective numbers in the Harry Potter seven books.
