Harry's Bedroom begins as a cramped, barred prison in the Dursleys' suburban house, symbolizing his captivity and isolation in Chamber of Secrets. By Prisoner of Azkaban the room is no longer described, implying either a shift in focus or a change in Harry's living situation. Across the series the space evolves from a literal cage into an emblem of the domestic oppression Harry must repeatedly escape.
