The hauntingly prophetic classic novel set in a not-too-distant future where books are burned by a special task force of firemen. Guy Montag is a fireman. His job is to burn books, which are forbidden, being the source of all discord and unhappiness. Even so, Montag is unhappy; there is discord in his marriage. Are books hidden in his house? The Mechanical Hound of the Fire Department, armed with a lethal hypodermic, escorted by helicopters, is ready to track down those dissidents who defy society to preserve and read books. The classic novel of a post-literate future, 'Fahrenheit 451' stands alongside Orwell's '1984' and Huxley's 'Brave New World' as a prophetic account of Western civilization's enslavement by the media, drugs and conformity. Bradbury's powerful and poetic prose combines with uncanny insight into the potential of technology to create a novel which over fifty years from first publication, still has the power to dazzle and shock.

Recenze
Čte se to skvěle, při čtení vás opravdu mrazí a pocit, že mě pronásledují električtí ohaři a banda hasičů která zakládá ohně místo aby je hasila, je opravdu dost děsivá. Příběh je o společnosti, kde by měli být všichni stejní, a proto se jim Guy hledající odpovědi na své otázky moc nehodí...Mohu vřele doporučit.
