In the book Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury‚ it was almost seen as a felony if one was caught with books in their possessions. The mentality was that books were seen to indoctrinate people to believe in unpopular ideas and also that it can cause people to become antisocial. The ironic part of the book was that Montag‚ a fireman who burned books for a living‚ ended having an open mind and started to read books. This is what books are all about. They open up peoples’ mind and educate them to ideas that
