Reading Fahrenheit 451 part 1

   Fahrenheit 451 is a novel by Ray Bradbury about a firefighter who begins to question his lifestyle and the world around him. I haven't actually finished this book yet, but I have to say I love it so far.This book was published in 1953, but the world in which the main character lives in is disturbingly close to ours today. The author predicted many of today's technology. He mentions small electronics that people keep in their ear that lets them communicate, listen to music, and disconnect from the world around them. He also talks about "parlor walls" that broadcast shows and advertising. These sound very close to ear buds and flat-screen televisions to me.

Welcome to my blog!
