Fahrenheit 451

In a future dystopian society, all printed materials have been banned. Enforced by the fire department – whose role it is to burn books – the attempt to create an emotionless, egalitarian society has been taken to an extreme. Guy Montag is a senior fireman who is much respected by his superiors and is in line for a promotion. He doesn’t question what he does or why he does it until he meets Clarisse. As his doubts grow, he begins to steal some of the books he is meant to burn.—garykmcd
