I'm a firm believer of the adage 'knowledge is power.' Bradbury's classic of a totalitarian world where books are burned, individuality is considered suspicious behavior, and intellect is punishable by death, has continued to appeal to my unwavering belief after all these years since my first exposure to this work in the eighth grade.
Though I appreciated the style of this young- adult novel more when I was a younger adult, the message is more chilling now than it has ever been. Sadly, Montag's world of little substance where society treasures things rather than one another seems more applicable today than when Bradbury penned it so many decades ago.
