Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
A bleak vision of society where books are considered dangerous by the institutions, since it’s easier to rule a conformistic population.
I read this long, long time ago and I always recalled the premise, but forgot about the reasons for burning the books. Unfortunately, many parallels can be drawn with the current state of humanity.
The ending offers a new hope for the future of knowledge and society, and I can only hope that there are parallels with the current state in that too.
