About this listen

Samuel is back with a brand new book, and this one also has numbers in the title! This is the start of our series on Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, an undeniable classic and cornerstone of the dystopian satire genre. But is it really all it's cracked up to be? Does it even really make any sense? In this first part Samuel will be taking us through the plot of the book and pointing out some of the parts that work and some of the parts that maybe don't. We have a lot of feelings about this book, and will have even more next week when we discuss the history of the book and Ray Bradbury himself!
