Rating: Summary: The best book in the world Review: If you haven't read this book you have to do so now. I know you are thinking its science fiction but once you read it you'll be thinking how can they burn books and kill people who do. You will agree bradbury's ideas. I hope a movie comes out of this book eventhough bradbury doesn't like it.Maybe the book can be remember by a movie.
Rating: Summary: Absolute must for anybody who can think Review: If your brain is not dumbed down completely by Crichton's "Sphere" and other chewing gum books, get and read this one and you'll see where this country (USA) is plunging: complete emasculation of the speech. GET THE SALTINESS OUT OF THE SALT, BECAUSE SOMEBODY MAY NOT LIKE IT SALTY. That's the slogan of today.
Rating: Summary: your life is not complete till you read this book! Review: how can anyone NOT read this book?? i noticed that it is categorized as young adult, but this poignant and moving story, about living and loving life as much as it is a warning for the future, is for everyone. this book had me up until three in the morning because i literally could not put it down. i read it in one white-knuckled, wide-eyed sitting. because rain really DOES taste just like wine, if you tilt your head back and let raindrops fall on your tongue...
Rating: Summary: A book with many levels Review: What appears on cursory reading to be a story of banned books, with reflection is a comment on the systematic suppression of free thought and free speech. The book gives insight into how those who look the other way or are concerned with rights only as applied to them can actually further the loss of individual freedoms. A very thought provoking novel.
Rating: Summary: This Powerful Warning for Our Future Is Powerful! Review: Bradbury creates a perfect dystopia in which life as we know it does not exist. The deep value of somewhat simple style makes this book one of the finest ever written. This book should be a necessity for anyone who plans on helping to preserve liberty for one's self and for all.
Rating: Summary: I've always had trouble reading Review: I've always had trouble reading but when I read this book for my English 2 class I loved it. It was a very good book. My fav line is... "Ask not for sucurity, there never was such an animal, and if there was it would be related to the sloth which spends its time hangin upside down in a tree""To hell with that, I say, kick the tree and knock the sloth on his @$$!" Must READ! I wrote an essay on this book and got an A!
Rating: Summary: A decent book, I see somwhat related to 1984 Review: It's a book that basically tells of censorship. It is well written and makes you think about censorship today.
Rating: Summary: Classic Review: Bradbury's classic novel of a society where books and independent thought are rarities, not because of the government so much as the people being tired of thinking. Just as good the third time through. Check out Huxley's "Brave New World" if you enjoyed this.
Rating: Summary: Great Book with a Strong Meaning Review: This is one of the best books I have ever read. It changes the way you thing about the future, books, and censorship. It is well written and hard to put down once you start it.
Rating: Summary: A strong statement on the moral condition of society Review: I thoroughly enjoyed the book and I encourage the reading of it, for the plot is rousing and makes you want to jump up and help the character on his way. Bradbury is a master at writing and his style and grace in this book makes it a true classic.
