Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number four, Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much. They were the last people you'd expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didn't hold with such nonsense.

Mr. Dursley was the director of a firm called Grunnings, which made drills. He was a big, beefy man with hardly any neck, although he did have a very large mustache. Mrs. Dursley was thin and blonde and had nearly twice the usual amount of neck, which came in very useful as she spent so much of her time craning over garden fences, spying on the neighbors. The Dursleys had a small son called Dudley and in their opinion there was no finer boy anywhere.

The Dursleys had everything they wanted, but they also had a secret, and their greatest fear was that somebody would discover it. They didn't think they could bear it if anyone found out about the Potters. Mrs. Potter was Mrs. Dursley's sister, but they hadn't met for several years; in fact, Mrs. Dursley pretended she didn't have a sister, because her sister and her good-for-nothing husband were as unDursleyish as it was possible to be. The Dursleys shuddered to think what the neighbors would say if the Potters arrived in the street. The Dursleys knew that the Potters had a small son, too, but they had never even seen him. This boy was another good reason for keeping the Potters away; they didn't want Dudley mixing with a child like that.

When Mr. and Mrs. Dursley woke up on the dull, gray Tuesday our story starts, there was nothing about the cloudy sky outside to suggest that strange and mysterious things would soon be happening all over the country. Mr. Dursley hummed as he picked out his most boring tie for work, and Mrs. Dursley gossiped away happily as she wrestled a screaming Dudley into his high chair.

None of them noticed a large, tawny owl flutter past the window.

住在四號普里懷特街的杜斯利先生及夫人,非常驕傲地宣稱自己是十分正常的人。但是他們最不希望見到的就是任何奇怪或神秘故事中的人物,因為他們對此總是嗤之以鼻。

  杜斯利先生是一家叫作格朗寧斯的鉆機工廠的老板。他非常肥壯、結實,幾乎肥到?jīng)]有頸根,但卻有一把大胡子。杜斯利夫人則非常苗條,一頭金發(fā)。她的頸根有常人的兩倍那么長,這使得她整天伸長脖子透過花園圍欄去偷窺鄰居家的動靜變得非常容易。杜斯利夫婦有個兒子叫做達德里。在他們眼中,這世界上再沒有比達德里更棒的男孩了。

  杜斯利一家?guī)缀跤兴麄兿胍囊磺袞|西。但是他們也有一個秘密,而且他們最大的擔心就是有一天別人會發(fā)現(xiàn)這個秘密。如果有人知道關于波特一家的事,他們就會認為自己無法保守這個秘密了。波特夫人是杜斯利夫人的妹妹,但是她們已經(jīng)有很多年沒有見面了、事實上,杜斯利夫人假裝她從來沒有什么妹妹,因為她的妹妹和那不中用的妹夫沒有一絲一毫杜斯利家族的風范。一想到波特一家的到來會招致鄰居的議論,杜斯利一家就會渾身發(fā)抖。杜斯利一家知道波特夫婦也有一個兒子,只是未曾謀面。這個小男孩也成了杜斯利一家避開波特一家的借口,因為他們不希望聽話的達德里與這種小孩混在一起。

  當杜斯利先生和夫人在灰暗陰沉的星期二早晨醒來時,我們的故事便開始了。雖然外面陰云密布的天空并不能預示著今天一定會有什么離奇古怪的事情發(fā)生。杜斯利先生一邊哼著小曲一邊拿出他最差的領帶準備去上班,杜斯利夫人則一邊口中叨念著一邊把依依呀呀的達德里放到高椅子上去。

  沒有一個人注意到這時有一只巨大的褐色的貓頭鷹從窗外掠過。
