Description Liminality: A Distinguishing Feature of Beloved Young Adult Literature C.S. Lewis's The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, and Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book all share a unique combination of elements. Scholars point out similar features in each of these books when they analyze them individually. Their observations center on fantasy and archetype, and highlight liminality as a facet of genre or tradition. They point to fantasy as a middle space for blending worlds, myths, and realistic characterization.
