 ]]> 2018-08-26 15:56:37 UTC https://padlet.com/elijahevans1107/6ww4se7h270n/wish/275377306 FAHRENHEIT 451 B RAY BRANDBURY https://padlet.com/elijahevans1107/6ww4se7h270n/wish/284146993 Ray Bradbury was born in August 22,1920 in Waukegan Illinois and died in los angles June 5,2012. he was an American author and Screenwriter. he started writing when he was twelve years old. He graduate high school in 1938. he wanted to attend college, but could not afforded, so he took a job in a library. He started writing magazines and from there his career took off. Two of his best known works are "The Illustrated Man" and " something Wicked This Way Comes".

Guy Montag: the main character of our story. he is a proud 30 years old, fire fighter. He has been in his department for four years. he is a good model of what a fire man in his time is consider to be. He's kind, and caring. he seems like the normally average everyday person you would meet out in the street  when he's off work..
Mildred Montag: Guy's wife. her and Guy have been married for a long time. she never wanted children, so her Guy are childless. She is gray, moody, and she seems to prefers to be along despite being married. Fox example listens to her seashell  while Montag tries to have a conversation with her. Her's and Guys relationship has died off.
Clarisse McClellan: she is a com, sweet and easy going seventeen year old Guy meets one night while returning home from work. she enjoys conversations and taking walks. she calls herself crazy because everyone else do. She the one person that Guy himself stay he's happy to be around because she is so different, and because of how she saw things, she appreciated the small things in life, She makes Guy question things about his life that he would not have done other wise.
Beatty: The chief of the fire department that Guy works for. He and Guy seem to have a good relationship. He's very knowledgeable about the rulers for the fire department and of history. He believes people are happier without anything to distract them such as books. In the novel he also seems to play the rule of a law in forcers , as the fire department is the one who is responsible for making sure that the rule of no books is followed, and is the one who burn down the house of anyone who breaks this rule in addition to the power to arrest them as well.
Faber: He is a wise old English professor who lived during the aura when books allowed to be read and keep in store by anyone should they please. He is the type of person that sees a problem and sees the need to for change however is too cautious and carful to do anything about it. They want to help and have the means to help but are not willing to take the chance. In the novel when Guy goes to him in search of answers to his question about the book, Faber is very wary about him being there because he is a fire man.  However, he dose change his demeanor when Guy started saying he was willing to go out and do something about how things by planting books in fireman's house. He offers Guy his help and they agreed that he could help without having to leave the comfort of his home, he would communicate with him using a small radio. It is easy to say that Faber is a coward because of his fear of stepping out for so many years, but at the same time if he had step out and gotten arrested he would not have been able to influence Guy like he did.
Best Quote:
He saw himself in her eyes, suspending in two shining drops of bright water. this quote is one of my favorite quote in this book because it creates a real vivid  picture in the mind. In addition Its relatable because I can think of the many times I've peer into someone else's eyes and saw the image of myself.
Recommend Book To:
I would recommend this book to anyone that enjoys reading a good fiction that involves the main character going against the norm of the society they live in.
3 theme of this story.
1. Its easier to sweep the problems we sometime come up against under a rogue then to deal with them.
2. sometime in life the fewer suffer to make the majority happy.
3. Its easy to control  people when they believe everything they are told and never ask question
Essential question:
the main question that is being ask in the novel is why are people not allowed to own books. the answer to this question I believe is by getting rid of books they, the government, are getting rid of all thought process which in turn keep people from questioning weather it is wrong or not. I believe this is so because with books come knowledge and with knowledge comes goal, ideas and inspiration. If the people are allowed to have books they will know that the way things are being run is wrong because of the history of the government, and they would know that people were allowed to own books before their time. In this novel owning a books can be seen as having freedom because they allow a person to think for themselves, they drive people to think for themselves and that is something the government dose not want to happen. They don't want people getting ideas and questioning society and the way it is.

3 songs:
1. Ben Moody " Everything Burn"
 This song would be good soundtrack for "Fahrenheit 451"because  it pretty much describes "Fahrenheit 451" its about burning all troubles away. This describes this novel as the story is about a society who decide to burn all books because they are seen as a burden a source of information. they burn them and in doing so they are burning all there problems away.
2. Snow Patrol "Open Your Eyes"
this song would be good soundtrack in the sense that the people in the novel are blind because they don't really think for themselves they are told something and they believe. This would play
3. Linkin Park "Runaway" this song would be good song to paly during the seen when Montag is running from for his life by the police and literally everyone else. It would be a good song because its about  running away form your troubles and Montag in the novel is running from trouble. He is running away for committing what in his society is considered a crime, owning books. In honesty he is in trouble for trying to solve the problem.
             Summery:
The novel "Fahrenheit 451" is about a utopian style civilization where the life of the people is really control by the government. They do this by binding books from use by anyone. people are not allowed to own books and if they are caught doing so there house is burn down along with the books. they are controlling the people in this manner because they taking away any source of knowledge form them. Meaning they really have no idea they are being control because they don't know the history of there government, but there are multiple signs throughout the  novel showing they are being control. Montag the main, character of the novel, at first is an enforcer of the law, however one night on his walk home from work he meets a young woman name Clarisse, who in some way open his eyes when she starts talking about enjoying the small things in life with, like the moon light. In the mist of the walk she asks him if he is happy. This catches him off guard because to him the quick short answer was yes but he fines himself question if it is yes. He went to answer her however she walks off before he has a chance to. Continuing his walk home he fine thinking about her question and he starts question his life with his wife and coming to the conclusion that he is not happy with his life with her. Do to this Montag starts to seeing things differently and during this he starts noticing signs about the way things are in the world he is in. He than starts questioning his work and wanting to know why his job as a fire fighter was to start a fire instead of putting them out. He questions why people are not allowed to own books and why some people are okay with this. He himself was okay with this at one point in his life he said to himself but why? He than answers his own question and said it is all he has ever known. To fine more information he tries reading a books himself, but fines it very difficult to understand what the books is saying. For help he turns to an old English professor name Faber. Faber explain that by getting rid of books they control the amount of knowledge people possess and its there way of making sure no one question them. He states that by taking away books they are take people's freedom as well. He also tells him that the government watch all citizen twenty-four 7. Herring this Montag gets very angry, and states he is going to do something. He ask Faber to help however Faber says no because he is too afraid. Montag continue asking though until he says yes, but says he is only willing to help from the comfort of home. they agree and plan to staring to people, one of whom bring Montag's boss Beatty, however Beatty his boss knew what he was up to and because of that his house was search and burn to the ground  and in the middle of all this Montag and his boss has a confrontation in which he takes his boss's life. After this Montag runs for his life because the police is after him along a with mechanical dog that can track his sent from miles on end. This continues until he is able to throw the dog off his sent by changing clothiers and sanding the clothiers he had on down a river.

He is welcome by them and decides to remain with them outside town.
