Summary: Bradbury tells tales of both simplicity and depth.
Review: This book epitomizes what is most wonderful about Bradbury's work; he tells fairly simple tales but they can also be explored for their depth of meaning. As we see in other books like "Brave New World", the primary characters in "Farenheit 451" may appear to be naieve or even stupid, at times. But, one doesn't have to look very far or very hard to see examples of blind acceptance of ideas and leaders. To intelligent, critical minds, this acceptance is often ludicrous. Look back 60 or 70 years and you see a whole nation succumbing to stupid ideas - and 6 million people died. "Farenheit 451" is a prime example of what science fiction can often do better than any other type of fiction - give us parables or lessons of those things that are best and worst in ALL of us

Summary: Great classic SciFi novel
Review: This is a great novel, in which future is predicted, at least in some technological advances. Let's hope the social side keeps far away from our societies

Summary: A lesson to be learned?
Review:
A classic of Ray Bradbury's, this book, like all of his books, is a product of a fantastic imagination. However, I found that the fantastic I expected from this Bradbury book was not as fantastic as I found in his other novels.
The book storyline itself is very interesting. Indeed, Bradbury gets his point across. At first, the book seems Orwellian, as if there is a tyrant or Stalinist leader in America. But this is not true, and the actual reason _why_ the books are burned is very interesting. The reason was a completely new concept I never really thought of.
Bradbury makes you think.
This novel tends to reflect heavily on Bradbury's fear of "the bomb" and of course, the opression of book reading (as does his other classic, "The Martian Chronicles").
There has been much critical review about Bradbury's treatment of one of the main characters, Clarisse. Her ending tends to be unanswered and incomplete; however, this should not have an effect on your choice of reading the novel.
Overall, the book should _definitly_ be read. I cannot necessarily agree with Bradbury's perhaps-paranoid version of the future, but his point is well taken and well respected.

Summary: A Mindless Zombie
Review: Irony without imagination and the will to think for yourself.You're just a mindless zombie, a puppet for people to control you. Inmy opinion, that's what Ray Bradbury is saying in his book. - J. Litton, BDHS

Summary: One of my top 5 favorite books of all time.
Review: Well worth reading. But don't bother watching the movie, it doesn't resemble the book much at all

Summary: A terrifying yarn on extremeist censorship.
Review: A darkly terrifying tale of an extremist future wherecensorship has married family values: if a six year old shouldn\222tbe reading the material, then no one else can either. Our Hero, who sneaked some books and has been secretly reading them, shows us just why the faceless Authority burns all books at Fahrenheit 451. The future has a strong emphasis on interactive television (hey, it covers the four living room walls), and literacy seems to be at the bottom of the heap. Dossiers are kept on all individuals who show an intellectual spark. Such individuals are swatted out of existence, though there seems to be no shortage of those willing to covertly buck the Authority. Plenty of backstabbing neighbors lead to the climax of the novel. With the emphasis today on television and computer skills, and less emphasis on the basic reading skills (just look at reading scores), one can imagine our future, just 4 generations from now, subtly turning into the extremist future world of Fahrenheit 451. A recommended read for any wishing to extol the virtues of more reading and less television; for those wanting a glimpse of a future where technology has suppressed the creative spark; and for those wishing to learn exactly what censorship does to a society.

Summary: If the world was without books....
Review: If the world was awry, and books were against the law, what would it be like? This book describes a world of askew life. One man, in his attempt to save literature, takes his mission to the top
