Montag is a firefighter, but he doesn’t fight fires like a firefighter does today, He is part of a fire fighting group that goes house to house seeing if there are books, and if they find the books they burn them. The reason these firefighters burn books is because they have a politic where you can’t read books, because the leaders in this society don’t want people to use their imaginations and to think different or know more then anyone else.
In the beginning, Montag the main character is at a house burning books that him and his crew had found, that was their job was to destroy these books.
