Fahrenheit 451
Fireman Guy Montag burns books in a society that treats sustained thought as dangerous and distraction as happiness. Encounters with his curious young neighbor Clarisse and a woman who refuses to abandon her library fracture his confidence in the system. Secret reading draws him toward resistance as his marriage and public identity unravel. Urgent and accessible, this dystopian classic suits a late-night read about censorship, technology, memory, and the difficult recovery of an inner life.
