My plan for my reading this year was to read more diverse and thought provoking books ,this book was very much that.This is speculative fiction,Bradbury tells a tale of what the future would look like without books,how as a society we let it happen it shows us how books might not give us all the answers but makes us ask the questions,they challenge you and make you think.#joyousjanuary
Book 2 of #readawya2024
Finally read this classic while audio-crocheting this evening.
It was written in the 50s but is still pertinent today.
I'm glad to know the story of "Fahrenheit 451."
For all the librarians under siege and all of us. Truffaut directing Fahrenheit 451.
Keep going!
I started today the tagged book, I would like to finish it within monday... I really hope so!
Really interesting book who‘s premise is still super relevant today.. book has some really good social commentary and a lot to say about knowledge can survive in the modern world. Overall can see why this has been considered a classic for so long
My sister recommended this book and told me I had to listen to the Tim Robbins audiobook version. She said “he acted the shit out of it”. I completely agree. I didn‘t know much about this book except the obvious burning books part and that it‘s a banned book. It was an intense book and it‘s shocking how much of the future Ray Bradbury got right. It‘s shocking that he wrote this in the 50‘s. It makes me want to unplug completely. Glad I read it.
