Fahrenheit 451 While researching the text of Fahrenheit 451, the author Ray Bradbury writes of the future which seems to be the present. The similarity between the world in the book to our own is very breathtaking because if you think about it the book was written in the 1950’s in which they had just gotten TV’s,video recorders, and radios etc. The reason being that they had just gotten that type of technology there was no way of him knowing that the technology would escalate like…

“Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family.” (Kofi Annan) A dystopia is a futuristic, imagined universe in which people lead dehumanized and often fearful lives.
