"Fahrenheit 451" is a dark tale that warns about the limits of censorship. The greatness of this book is how it takes you on a shocking and inflammatory journey and drops you off wondering "if this could ever happen" where you live. Great fiction does more than entertain briefly. It makes us think...Highly recommended as an introduction to Bradbury.
