It is here the invaders have come to despoil and commercialize, to grow and to learn--first a trickle, then a torrent, rushing from a world with no future toward a promise of tomorrow. The Earthman conquers Mars...and then is conquered by it, lulled by dangerous lies of comfort and familiarity, and enchanted by the lingering glamour of an ancient, mysterious native race. FAHRENHEIT 451: Sixty years after its original publication, Ray Bradbury's internationally acclaimed novel Fahrenheit 451 stands as a classic of world literature set in a bleak, dystopian future. Today its message has grown more relevant than ever before.Guy Montag is a fireman. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television "family." But when he meets an eccentric young neighbor, Clarisse, who introduces him to a past where people didn't live in fear and to a present where one sees the world through the ideas in books instead of the mindless chatter of television, Montag begins to question everything he has ever known. 700 1 $a Robbins, Tim. $0 (local)358082 700 1 $a Boyett, Mark. $0 (local)358084 941 $a 1 945 $a cda 952 $l AXPF626 $d 20190618013545.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9667BF0A918E11E9A17BDD4B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
