    The system was simple. Everyone understood it. Books were for burning, along with the houses in which they were hidden. Guy Montag was a fireman whose job it was to start fires. And he enjoyed his job. He had been a fireman for ten years, and he had never questioned the pleasure of the midnight runs or the joy of watching pages consumed by flames, never questioned anything until he met a seventeen-year-old girl who told him of a past when people were not afraid.

    AMY says: "classic dystopia, reader weak"

    Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

    It is a must read for young people. I understand why the book is taught in school and why, when written it was so significant. The message still resonates but of course, after all these years, doesn't have the same punch


    How could the performance have been better?

    The reader was way too sing-songy and he was unable to vary his voice significantly to portray the different characters.
