Fahrenheit 451 – Ray Bradbury (1953, Paperback Edition)
Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 is a blistering dystopian classic about a future where books are banned and “firemen” burn them. The story follows Guy Montag, a fireman who begins to question his role in suppressing knowledge. A haunting exploration of censorship, conformity, and the power of ideas, Bradbury’s prose burns as fiercely as the books he describes.
