Faber is very important to Montag because he is the only individual that Montag knows of that might be able to help teach him the way to understanding what the text in a book says. Moreover, Faber’s job could be seen as obsolete since he was previously an English professor and nowadays in their society books aren’t used anymore so it defeats the purpose of having someone that teaches how to read and retain a book’s information. By this you can see that in the society Faber is the weak link that…

Montag is a man who has discovered that he is no longer happy, and he thinks the solution to him becoming happy again is in books. He goes to Faber to converse more about this issue.
