Description
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury is a dystopian novel set in a future society where books are banned, and "firemen" burn any that are found. The story follows Guy Montag, a fireman who becomes disillusioned with his role in a society that suppresses knowledge and free thought. As Montag begins to question the purpose of his work and the oppressive world around him, he encounters individuals who challenge his beliefs, leading him on a journey of self-discovery and rebellion. The novel explores themes of censorship, the impact of technology on society, and the importance of intellectual freedom. Fahrenheit 451 remains a powerful commentary on the dangers of conformity and the suppression of ideas.
