F451 SUMMARY PART I

So far what we have read in the book Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, is about a character named Guy Montag. He is a firefighter who starts fires instead of stopping them. He burns book. This book is about a dystopian world, people in this book do not really have a lot of knowledge. They are just basically people who are addict4ed to technology and don't think. It seems to be that these people are not really happy.


In this book Montag meets a girl named Clarisse, he found her walking around. She was different than the others because she actually thought. She is not like everyone who actually does not stop and think about things. Clarisse isn't afraid of Montag like everyone else would be. In fact, she questioned him on whether or not he was even happy. Which actually made Montag react, he doesn't know if he is happy or not. Clarisse's family actually talks to each other unlike other families who barley say a word.


Montag has a wife named Mildred, she is a person who only thinks about herself. She is always wearing he seashells. They sleep in different beds, they are married but don't have a lot of communication like a normal relationship would. Their house is full of technology. Mildred overdosed with medication, but it seems to happen a lot in that world because the doctors said it was normal. They were not even worried, it tells a lot about the world they live in. It seems to be that people living there are unhappy.
