Library: Sci-fi Book Club - "Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury

  • Van Nuys Branch Library 6250 Sylmar Ave Van Nuys, CA 91401 (map)

Join an in-person Science Fiction Book Club, where Ray Bradbury's seminal classic Fahrenheit 451 will be discussed.

"Guy Montag is a fireman. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed books, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television "family." But when he meets an eccentric young neighbor, Clarisse, who introduces him to a past where people didn't live in fear and to a present where one sees the world through the ideas in books instead of the mindless chatter of television, Montag begins to question everything he has ever known."

Moderated by John Tommasino.

Open to teens and adults. Pick up a copy at the Circulation Desk.
