Fahrenheit 451--#32 finished

Ray Bradbury's famous futuristic book about burning books.  I enjoyed his take on the future and how similar it came out to be--with TV and a kind of dumbing down of society.  To me it was still a kind of labor to get through the book.  Not that entertaining but still kept me to where wanted to push on.  This copy had a letter he wrote several years later and then an interview with him for the books 50th year since publication, those were both very interesting to read.

I will keep this book.  Previous owner underlined and put in margin notes so really won't put back to PBS but is a keeper for now.
