About this item
Nearly seventy years after its original publication, Ray Bradbury’s internationally acclaimed novel Fahrenheit 451 remains a classic of world literature, set in a dark, dystopian future. Today, its message feels more relevant than ever.
Guy Montag is a fireman tasked with destroying the most forbidden of items: printed books, along with the homes that conceal them. Montag never questions the devastation his actions cause, returning daily to his monotonous life with his wife, Mildred, who spends her time engrossed in her television “family.” However, when he encounters an eccentric young neighbor, Clarisse, who introduces him to a past free from fear and a present where one engages with the world through the ideas in books rather than the mindless chatter of television, Montag begins to question everything he has ever known.
