Fahrenheit 451 is a dystopian novel by Ray Bradbury, published in 1953. It is regarded as one of his best works. The novel presents a future American society where books are outlawed and "firemen" burn any that are found. The book's tagline explains the title: "Fahrenheit 451 – the temperature at which book paper catches fire, and burns ..."
The novel has been the subject of interpretations focusing on the historical role of book burning in suppressing dissenting ideas. In a 1956 radio interview, Bradbury stated that he wrote Fahrenheit 451 because of his concerns at the time (during the McCarthy era) about the threat of book burning in the United States. In later years, he described the book as a commentary on how mass media reduces interest in reading literature.
In 1954, Fahrenheit 451 won the American Academy of Arts and Letters Award in Literature and the Commonwealth Club of California Gold Medal. It has since won the Prometheus "Hall of Fame" Award in 1984 and a 1954 "Retro" Hugo Award, one of only four Best Novel Retro Hugos ever given, in 2004. Bradbury was honored with a Spoken Word Grammy nomination for his 1976 audiobook version.
Adaptations include François Truffaut's 1966 film adaptation of the novel and a 1982 BBC Radio dramatization. Bradbury published a stage play version in 1979 and helped develop a 1984 interactive fiction computer game titled Fahrenheit 451, and a collection of his short stories, A Pleasure to Burn.

评分在UCLA的powell library地下室写的反乌托邦经典。一下午读完。I don't usually like dystopian works but this one is decent and inspiring.
评分中规中矩的反乌托邦,由于英语能力确实还不够所以体会不到文笔和氛围的美感,是一大遗憾;设定和风格都像1984和美丽新世界的中间状态,使它显得真实无比,消费主义、emptiness和媒体圆谎都太过真实,真实到感觉不到它有多牛逼。缺点或许是主旨部分都是对话直说出来的,人物塑造也不够亮眼(但我莫名很喜欢Beatty的塑造),还有战争背景有机械降神之嫌,明明集权国度更难被灭亡才比较带感..看了太多反乌托邦,套路都有类似之处,确实已经不太能戳到我了(x)
评分全书最喜欢的人就是Clarisse了。关于她的部分作者又写得自然又流畅,她身上同时拥有轻快和冷静两种矛盾的性质,如一首复调音乐织体。"Welcome back from the dead" 这样略显正统的结尾我反而不太喜欢了。
评分“It was a pleasure to burn.” It's the first sentence of this book that attracted me. A fiction with beautiful prose that reflects many phenomenons in morden society.The notion that human self can be a book is inspiring. Could find more here: https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/1jkEZlROkldzvcKwf1mrTg
