Bradbury's classic parable on the evils of censorship
I am teaching "Fahrenheit 451" as the example of a dsytopian novel in my Science Fiction class, although it is certainly one of the most atypical of that particular type of narrative discourse. Compared to such heavy weight examples as George Orwell's "1984," Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World," Yevgeny Zamiatin's "We," Ray Bradbury's imaginative meditation on censorship seems like light reading. ...

This book was in Spanish. I think it should have been more clearly marked. It was delivered quickly and was in good shape though.

Written in the basement of the UCLA library
I do not want to tell much of the story, as the unfolding is part of the intrigue. However now that houses are fire proof the purpose of firemen is performing a service by burning books to maintain the happy social order.
Naturally one fireman goes awry after several emotional incidences from someone burning up with the books to a young neighbor with strange ways, which run counter to his ...

It was a pleasure to burn....
I can't believe that some people could read this book and not understand why it is important. This book is a classic for a reason. Underneath the dystopian surface are truths- and frightening resemblances to our own society. When I read this for the first time, I was shocked and pleased to hear that there is someone else who thinks like me. Thank you, Mr. Bradbury, for turning a critical eye ...

Ray Bradbury

Guy Montag knew that books were for burning. His job was to start the fires. He never questioned this, until he met a young girl who told him of a past with no fear, and a professor who told him of a future when people could think. Guy Montag suddenly realized what he had to do.

Great book for teenagers
I purchased this book for my teenaged son to do an English class book report. He was impressed by the way the author was able to imagine the future considering this was written in 1953. I do not recommend for under the high school level.

One of the best of the disturbing future stories
While many people consider Ray Bradbury to be a science fiction writer, that is a very inaccurate and incomplete categorization. He is a master storyteller, in many ways I consider him superior to Asimov and Heinlein, because he is better able to take an effective turn to the dystopia or macabre genres.
This book is truly one of the best unfortunate futuristic or dystopia stories ever written. ...
