La historia de un sombr o y aterrador futuro Guy Montag pertenece a una extra a brigada de bomberos.
Su misi n, parad jicamente, no es la de sofocar incendios sino la de provocarlos para quemar libros.
Ha sido bombero durante m s de 10 a os, y siempre le gust su trabaj .
Nunca cuestion nada --ni la emoci n de las salidas a medianoche ni el placer de ver las hojas arder-- hasta que conoci a una ni a de diecisiete a os que le mostr un pasado en el que la gente no ten a miedo y a un profesor que le habl de un futuro en el que la gente podr a ser libre.
Y al fin Montag comprendi lo que ten a que hacer.
Fahrenheit 451, la novela m s c lebre del maestro de la ciencia ficci n, nos presenta un futuro perturbador: un mundo en el que los libros y la lectura est n prohibidos.
Porque leer obliga a pensar, y en ese mundo est prohibido pensar.
Porque leer impide ser ingenuamente feliz, y en ese mundo hay que ser feliz a la fuerza.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Ray Bradbury's internationally acclaimed novel Fahrenheit 451 is a masterwork of twentieth-century literature set in a bleak, dystopian future.
Guy Montag is a fireman.
In his world, where television rules and literature is on the brink of extinction, firemen start fires rather than put them out.
His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden.
Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television family.
But then he meets an eccentric young neighbor, Clarisse, who introduces him to a past where people didn't live in fear and to a present where one sees the world through the ideas in books instead of the mindless chatter of television.
When Mildred attempts suicide and Clarisse suddenly disappears, Montag begins to question everything he has ever known.
He starts hiding books in his home, and when his pilfering is discovered, the fireman has to run for his life.
