451 Grad Fahrenheit oder 232 Grad Celsius – die Temperatur, bei der Papier verbrennt. Guy Montag ist Feuerwehrmann. Es ist seine Aufgabe, Bücher zu beschlagnahmen und zu verbrennen. Denn Bücher sind die Quelle allen Unglücks ... Mit "Fahrenheit 451" hat Ray Bradbury Literaturgeschichte geschrieben – neben Orwells "1984" und Huxleys "Schöne neue Welt" gibt es nichts Vergleichbares.

A slog. The idea I get, but ugh. I hated the writing style, the way it progressed. I just did not like much of this book at all. Which is probably why I recall nothing about it from high school when I first read it 3x years ago.
Esperaba un Orwell y terminé un poco decepcionado. El mundo que construye está interesante pero no indaga demasiado en él, algunas partes parecen inconexas y solo estar ahí para continuar con la historia. Vale la pena leerlo completamente por una parte muy particular del final, sí lo lees, sabrás cuál es cuando llegues ahí.
I had read this book a long time ago and remembered it as a difficult read - my english was not quite on the same level as it is today. When re-reading it now i was blown away. An amazing story paired with wonderful storytelling. After reading "boring" contemporary novels this was delightfully refreshing
É uma distopia clássica, li há muito tempo mas lembro de não ter achado tão envolvente quanto as primas mais famosas (1984 e Admirável Mundo Novo). Recomendo o conto "Bright Phoenix" que inspirou o livro (é curtinho e achei melhor que o livro).
