The book is Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. The author is J.K Rowling. Harry is having a conversation with this new Professor named Professor Slughorn. He is trying to get a memory about Voldemort. Voldemort killed Harry’s parents when he was little. Voldemort also tried to kill Harry, but Voldemort has never been successful. Harry is trying to convince professor Slughorn to give him a memory so he can use it to kill Voldemort.
“You are the chosen one?”
“Of course I am” said Harry calmly.
“But then … my dear boy … you’re asking me in fact, to aid you in your attempt to destroy-”
“You don’t want to get rid of the wizard who killed Lily Evans?”.
Harry, Harry of course I do, but-”
“Your scared he will find out you helped me?”
“Be brave like my mother Professor…”
This conversation was one of the best in this book. I love how Harry tries to guilt Slughorn into giving him the memory. And how slughorn is so
