451 post

In the book Fahrenheit 451 there is a man who lives in the future.  This mans name is Guy Montag and his job is called a fireman.  In this book the fireman start the fires instead of taking them out.  this is a distopian future because the government has taken over the world.  The government makes it so that the people in the society cant think for themselves.  The government doesnt allow people to read anymore.  The firemans jobs are to go around to houses with books and set them on fire.  But the problem is that Montag steals books from the houses he is about to burn.  This is highly illegal in the socviety today.  Montag soon relizes that the society in the book is very wrong.  He learns this from talking to the Head of the Firehouse, Beatty.  Beatty is a man who would put his job infront of everthing.  One night, Montag sat down with Beatty and Beatty told him everthing.  He told him how all the book stoped and how the Government was killing the really smart people in the society.  The Government would tell the family and friends of the person that they got hit by a car or got shot just on the street.  They would never tell them that they were just killing them because they looked and talked smarter the the norm.  Montag is now trying to stop the government and hes trying to find a way to keep steeling the books.  He will continue to get smarter and learn more about the society then and the society in the past.
