“What did you give to the city, Montag? Ashes.
What did the others give to each other?
Nothingness.”
Such a brilliant book! I had to remind myself that this was written in the ‘50s. Some of the lifestyle conditions introduced in this book eerily reflects those that we experience at this time. How people are so detached and depressed but are unaware as to why? Sounds familiar, no?
Anyway, I kinda wish there’s a sequel but I understand why there isn’t. Lastly, the phrase “Don’t judge a book by its cover” was fucking amazing in this book’s context.
