Fahrenheit 451
$15.84
In a future where books are burned and independent thought is feared, fireman Guy Montag has spent his life destroying the very stories that once gave humanity meaning. But after meeting the curious and free-spirited Clarisse, cracks begin to form in the world he blindly accepted. As forbidden ideas ignite something deep within him, Montag is forced to choose between the safety of conformity and the dangerous freedom of thinking for himself.
Guy Montag is a fireman. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television “family.” But when he meets an eccentric young neighbor, Clarisse, who introduces him to a past where people didn’t live in fear and to a present where one sees the world through the ideas in books instead of the mindless chatter of television, Montag begins to question everything he has ever known.
