Fahrenheit 451

Ray Bradbury · 1953 · 249 pages

Guy Montag burns books for a living in a future that prefers screens to sentences. Then he meets a girl who still walks at night, and a page that will not stay ash.

Why we picked it

A classic about attention, censorship, and why stories matter. Short enough to finish, large enough to argue about for years.

Something to think about

Which book would you memorize if all the copies were going to burn?
