Fahrenheit 451: The Authorized Adaptation by Tim Hamilton, Ray Bradbury

4.0

---

I'm grateful for the adaptation. I'm also grateful that it's in a graphic novel form. I attempted to read the "regular" book and it couldn't keep my attention at all. The story of a future with no books and no reading sounds like it could happen. There are a lot of people who don't read at all or who rarely read. The story was set in the future but had been written more than fifty years ago so the author's idea of the future and what would happen was very interesting. Firemen who set fires and not put them out? A future without books and reading? All so scary when you think of those possibilities of people living in a world where thinking for yourself ultimately is not accepted.
