Clarisse makes Montag rethink over his life and how bad it is, while Mildred isnt even interested in Montag’s life or job, but about his money for her tvs. In Fahrenheit 451, Mildred and Clarisse are very different, Clarisse is very openminded and interested in Montag, while mildred only cares about her tv “family” and doesn’t care about Montag whatsoever. Qualities of Mildred and Clarisse

When is the last time a person has eaten dinner with their family while using their cellular device? When is the last time a person has eaten dinner without their family and instead, he or she watched an interactive TV show? Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury has a powerful message for readers today as the world described in the novel and our world today share many similarities. Fahrenheit 451 is about futuristic firemen who burn books because they are illegal. Due to the neglecting force towards books, people have an increased interest in technology and are using it all the time. Our world today is quite similar to the world in the novel because in both worlds interactive TV shows are watched often, people are using their technological devices all the time, and tracking devices are used.

In the book Fahrenheit 451, the author expresses his fears about how technology can affect one 's humanity. Members of the society in this book are unable to have relationships with themselves and others because of the technology surrounding their lives. Media is leaving a negative effect on people’s ability to memorize and remember events in their lives.

In Ray Bradbury’s famous novel, Fahrenheit 451, the relationship between Guy Montag and Clarisse McClellan is one of the most important and interesting. These two characters are so different, yet so similar. As a result of these differences, the characters are able to develop more independently through understanding one another. Clarisse has permanently influenced Montag’s life by demonstrating a part of it that he had forgotten about. While Clarisse is able to see the life in the point of view of another, and watch that change before her eyes. Montag and Clarisse have similarities, as well as differences in their outlook on life, emotions and lifestyles.

Fire is believed to be a key tool for survival, in Fahrenheit 45, it is killing them. It’s bright and entertaining but when the final embers fade from existence, it becomes dark and soul crushing. Fire used for the most basic human needs like to cook raw meat so we can eat it and survive, but it also kills a family when the blanket is left to close to a space heater. When you see that all that remains of the Holy Bible, is a black compressed brick, then and only then you realize how unforgiving fire truly is. Ray Bradbury is not a writer, he is a pyromaniac, every metaphor and description is just used to satisfy his addiction. If I had to narrow down all the characteristics of fire down into three words, they would be entertaining, depressing, and powerful. If I had to describe Fahrenheit 451 in three words, they would be entertaining, depressing, and powerful.

Fahrenheit 451 was a story that described fireman who started fires of houses that had books in them. People were not allowed to think for themselves or allowed to read books to avoid entering a thinking of anything different then what they were living in. At first Montag was okay with this lifestyle he even enjoyed it until Clarisse made him question his way of life. Montag behind spending more time with her and slowly began to change his actions. He began this by slowly collecting books that should have been burned in the fires and hiding them in his attic. When he tried to let his wife in on this and wanted them to reconnect by entering a world of books she was against the idea and scared to get in trouble. She agreed to give him a day or two to get it out of his system. However, in the end she ended up being the one to abandon his trust the most by being the person who turned him in and then got in a cab and drove off never thinking twice about it. This resulted in Montag changing and him burning his captain down to avoid getting arrested. He was able to escape and start a new life and ultimately began happy.

He has always done what he’s told, he became a fireman because his father was one and his father before him was a firemen. Montag never questioned if he was truly happy with the profession that he was essentially given at birth, marrying his robotic like wife, and always going with the social norm.

Today’s society devotes excessive amounts of time toward using technology. It is estimated that children spend at least 75 hours on electronic media and that adults spend at least 77 hours. This obsession with technology was inferred long before smartphones were created. Although it was written in 1953, the novel Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury envisions a future consumed by electronics akin to today’s society. Fahrenheit 451 mirrors the present society because it exhibits the misuse of technology, the influence that technology has on relationships, and the lust for eternal bliss.

Imagine a society completely run by technology—robotic workers, home theatres, supreme medical care. Despite the benefits technology could provide, its flaws are masked away by the glossy image created by the media. Fahrenheit 451 focuses on a dystopian society, taken place in the future, where technology is deeply engraved into the people’s lifestyle. With technology playing a major role in their lives, the people are isolated from their world as they are not exposed to many aspects of being human—knowledge, independence, emotion. Montag, the protagonist, soon realizes the missing elements of life, being human, due to the heavy uses of technology, and begins finding solutions in books. Ray Bradbury composed the novel in 1953, and was

Shall one remove the sack placed so cruelly upon one’s head by the crooks one calls society? Revealing the truths that were hidden far away in the corner of the world, Ray Bradbury wrote Fahrenheit 451 as a way to open the eyes of the reader, allowing them to understand a dystopia of hidden truths. Placed in futuristic times, the world in which Guy Montag lives is grim, in the eyes of an onlooker. From the eyes of Guy Montag however, nothing was wrong. He has the job that he loves, a wife to come home to every night, everything is safe, or in other words, peaceful. Or is it? Such is the path they walk, hidden from truth and they have no reason to suspect that what they know is anything but. Montag is in several cases blind.

Someone famous once stated, “The eyes are useless when the mind is blind”. In our present society, to find a place in which our minds are not being constantly suffocated with what the world wants us to perceive is becoming a strenuous task. From the grocery store to the rooms of our very own homes nothing seems to be of our own conscience anymore. Yet we are able to turn a blind eye to this fact. Why’s that? Just take a few seconds to think to yourself, “ How long [has] it [been]since you were really bothered? [Bothered ]about something important, about something real?”(pg)

By definition, a dystopia is “an imagined place or state in which everything is unpleasant or bad, typically a totalitarian or environmentally degraded one” (Oxford Dictionary). However, it may not be so far from nonfiction as had been thought. The modern United States is starting to express traits that classify a dystopia, such as dehumanization, individuality suppression, and the ever-growing gap between upper and lower class. The United States is heading down the path of becoming a dystopian society.

Fahrenheit 451 was written by Ray Bradbury first in 1950 and titled The Fireman, a shorter version of the novel we know today, published in 1953. It is a dystopian, science fiction novel focused around a future world that has banned reading and burns books. War is nonchalant and expected, government propaganda is being spouted through their ears, and no one is slowing down enough to live their life. Firemen are made to start fires at the houses of those people that have been reported as book owners and readers, reported by their neighbours, friends, or family. With a message of censorship, TV overtaking people’s lives, and asking critical questions, Fahrenheit 451 has been applied to many generations as the influence of media grows.
