The system was simple. Everyone understood it. Books were for burning, along with the houses in which they were hidden.
Guy Montag was a fireman whose job it was to start fires. And he enjoyed his job. He had been a fireman for ten years, and he had never questioned the pleasure of the midnight runs nor the joy of watching pages consumed by flames...never questioned anything until he met a seventeen-year-old girl who told him of a past when people were not afraid. Then Guy met a professor who told him of a future in which people could think. And Guy Montag suddenly realized what he had to do...
Paperback - Willing to send as a RABCK or trade when done.

Sent of as a Birthday RABCK present. Hope you enjoy this!
Thank you! I'm sure I'll enjoy this. =)
It's quite sad to read about burning books... This was in a way easy to read but kinda shocking. But I enjoyed this and Ray Bradbury's thoughts in the end. I'll participate to the numberchallenge with this book and send this tomorrow to the next happy reader. =)
I found Fahrenheit from someones wishlist, so this moves forward tomorrow. =)
