THE BOOK CLUB BOOK
Fahrenheit 451 is said to be the temperature at which paper catches fire and
burns. The book is a powerful story of one man's struggle with his conscience
as he performs his job - burning books. Guy Montag is a fireman - tasked with
finding and destroying books which are forbidden, and killing those who preserve
and read books. This classic novel is, with Orwell's '1984' and Huxley's 'Brave
New World', a powerful critique of aspects of Western civilization, media and
politics. Ray Bradbury's powerful and poetic writing still has the power to
make us think and reflect on our freedoms.
