“The Veldt” As Billy Cox once stated, “Technology should improve your life...Not become your life.” This factual quote also applies to the theme of “The Veldt”, by Ray Bradbury.

In “The Veldt,” ; the parents own a nursery

with the dead. In Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury uses the motif of nature and uses imagery to show the fight between living and dead, and how the two can blend together.

This is proven in the short story “The Veldt”. Through the use of personification and setting, Bradbury conveys the idea that the overuse of technology can lead to the separation of family.
