Visionary Tales at Ocean: Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury

Book discussion ofFahrenheit 451by Ray Bradbury will take place at Ocean Township on Thursday, September 3 at 10:30 AM. 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 didnt 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.
