Synopsis "Fahrenheit 451 (Ed. Escolar) (in Spanish)"

Un clásico de la ciencia ficción. Fahrenheit 451 ofrece la historia de un sombrío y horroroso futuro. Montag, el protagonista, pertenece a una extraña brigada de bomberos cuya misión, paradójicamente, no es la de sofocar incendios sino la de provocarlos para quemar libros. Porque en el país de Montag está terminantemente prohibido leer. Porque leer obliga a pensar, y en el país de Montag está prohibido pensar. Porque leer impide ser ingenuamente feliz, y en el país de Montag hay que ser feliz a la fuerza. «Trabajo para evitar un futuro sin educación.» Ray Bradbury ** Edición especial para escuelas.** Incluye material didáctico a cargo de Maribel Cruzado. Reseñas:«Bradbury es heredero de la vasta imaginación del maestro Poe.»Jorge Luis Borges «Incomparable. Un maestro en el delicado equilibrio entre ciencia y fantasía.»C. S. Lewis «La fuerza y la potencia de su original imaginación llenan de júbilo... Un talento mayor e insólito.»Christopher Isherwood «De entre todos los infiernos del conformismo, Fahrenheit 451 ofrece el retrato más convincente.»Kingsley Amis

Ray Bradbury was born on August 22, 1920 in Waukegan, Illinois, USA. During the Great Depression, he moved with his family to Los Angeles, where he graduated in 1938 from Los Angeles High School. His academic education ended there, but he continued to educate himself until he became a professional writer in 1943. His most famous works are "The Martian Chronicles" (1950), "The Illustrated Man" (1951), and "Fahrenheit 451" (1953). Bradbury has also written countless TV scripts, essays, and poems in addition to novels. His concern as a writer not only focuses on questioning the current way of life, but also delves into the realm of the fantastic and wonderful, with a poetic and sometimes provocative style. In his childhood, Bradbury was very prone to nightmares and horrible fantasies, which he later captured in his stories many years later.
