451°F is the temperature at which paper is said to catch fire and burn
Firefighters are no longer extinguishing fires but igniting them, and one of those firefighters are actually the main character in the book and the movie, Montag, his job is to burn the books, at first he didn’t question it, but through the time he saw stuff, REALIZED stuff, he even began to wonder why are books so “bad”? And why they’re banned?
All because a teenager girl asked him if he actually happy about his life, a small conversation made his life change.
Mildred, his wife, didn’t care much about him, she only watched the tv, they even had a tv in each wall so she can see wherever she is in, she was busy with the entertainment, she wasn’t even educated enough to hold a conversation with her husband normally, it was like talking to a child, unlike Clarisse, the teenager girl, when she disappeared, it changed montag himself.
*It was a pleasure to burn. It was a special pleasure to see things eaten, to see things blackened and changed. With the brass nozzle in his fists, with this great python spitting its venomous kerosene upon the world, the blood pounded in his head, and his hands were the hands of some amazing conductor playing all the symphonies of blazing and burning to bring down the tatters and charcoal ruins of history.
*
They banned books as to lead a world without any problems, because not everyone agrees with everything, like different political opinions, religions, every philosophy, or novel, so they thought burning it stops the argument, “If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none.”
You reading this which is bravo cuz i yap, it wouldn’t make any sense to you, but living it is much different, even if you thought about it, or even asked, they won’t care they will throw you to jail or brainwash you just like in 1984 book but ill talk about it later.
In 2026, now you have ChatGPT or any ai platform to ask and get the information in few seconds while few years back it took us years to understand it fully, So where exactly does that value come from? Is a novel truly only as good as its AI answer? If information is what really matters, shouldn’t we all spend our time reading textbooks instead of paperback?
Even reading the book made me realize that im brainrotted, in the last few pages, i hated it, i needed to read their boring stories and about the book they read.
Can you even read this whole review? Or you just stare at it thinking i wrote too much?
