Wikipedia entry for Fahrenheit 451

Notes of the day...

  • Utopian: Idea that the future is perfect
  • Dystopian: Negative view of the future. (Fahrenheit 451)


5 things I learned...

  1. has been the subject of various interpretations, primarily focusing on the historical role of book burning in suppressing dissenting ideas
  2. Television destroys the interest in reading literature.
  3.  book's title refers to the temperature that Bradbury understood to be the autoignition point of book paper.
  4. It's weird to be someone curious about life and nature in those times
  5. Everybody forgot what happiness really feels like and the question confuses them.
