Description

|
|
|
(National Book Award Winner) First published in 1953, Fahrenheit 451 is the late Ray Bradbury's dystopian vision of a world where television and hedonism have replaced critical thought, and firemen start fires, finding and burning books, now that society finds them too troubling. Fireman Guy Montag, however, becomes increasingly disturbed by his work, wondering why people risk their lives to keep their books. And after his freethinking neighbor challenges him to question his assumptions, Montag saves a book and begins to read. This 50th-anniversary edition features a photographic reproduction of the original dust jacket.
