He’s not named Harry, but Barry, and he’s already dead at the start of Rowling’s new adult novel, The Casual Vacancy. Set in the picturesque village of Pagford, Rowling’s darkly humorous novel portrays the decidedly un-quaint ugly conflicts that are revealed when Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly leaving a vacancy on the parish council.
