Fahrenheit 451

Dystopia, Novel by Ray Bradbury

Blurb

Fahrenheit 451 er en dystopisk roman skrevet af Ray Bradbury udgivet i 1953. Titlen refererer til den temperatur, som papir antændes ved: 451 grader Fahrenheit. 451 grader Fahrenheit svarer til 233 grader Celsius. I dette fremtidssamfund er bøger forbudte, da de gør folk ulykkelige. Brandvæsnet opsporer og brænder derfor ulovlige bøger. Enkelte mennesker gemmer bøger eller lærer dem udenad.
François Truffaut har skabt en film baseret på bogen.

I never really found the story to get going it always felt like I was listening to the prolog and I found I was waiting for something to happen till the last page.

Never got me excited and I found it seemed to be a flat novel

Heads up, unfortunately my review is curved very heavily by nostalgia as this was one of the few good books I was forced to read in grade school. Bradbury is one of my favorite writers of all time, and as usual he brings a fantastic story. WIth themes about cultural conformity and education, Bradbury brings an easy to read story about a possible dystopian future that I heartily recommend.

Trotz des dargestellten Kontrollwahns bleibt das Buch meist spannende Fiktion. Der Drang der Menschheit, sich den im Fernsehen ablaufenden Scheinrealitäten hinzugeben, ist dann aber wohl doch eingetreten. Oder eingetreten worden... Eine fesselnde Dystopie um Freiheit und künstliche Wissensbeschränkungen die den rebellischen Geist zu reizen vermag.
