Paper Summary:

This review of Bradbury's (1953) Fahrenheit 451 considers the ways the author uses fire as a symbol of both destruction and creation, as both the symbol of decay in a post-atomic society, and a symbol of salvation, a source of heat and light. It is the heat, and light of fire that changes the main character, Guy Montag, from a book-burner to a book-rebel, one who has seen enough of what fire can do to understand how fire represents the past, and the potential for a different future. In the end, Montag realizes it is not the fire itself that is destructive, but the hands the control what fires will be used for.
