Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
About the Novel: In the classic dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451, firemen don’t put out fires but start them. In this society ignorance is bliss: people consume trivial information and have almost no critical thinking skills, shunning books and knowledge. Fahrenheit 451 creates a dystopian world that is scarily relevant to modern society, commenting on the place that people, technology, and the government have in society.
