I never read that book , but now I'm curious . Is it one of those books that gives you a revelation and makes you go "that's it !" type of book ?

I've never read that book
But I think about art dying every day. And it makes me horrified to think of a future with no art, where everything is controlled by money, where people have no emotions...
Because I know it could happen. Or actually, I know it won't happen, but it hypothetically could.
That book should be OBLIGATORY in ALL schools.
I can't sleep when I think of a future with no culture

The first time I read that book, I'm reasonably sure I couldn't sleep for thinking about it. And I know I cried too.

Yea. I'm getting somewhat the same feeling while reading Atlas Shrugged. The way it's all so corrupt. But I've also felt it with 1984, Animal Farm, Brave New World...

I never read the book, well okay I've read parts of it. But when I've watched the movie many many times, I cry almost every time!

0_0 Holy Hell this gave me goose bumps.
I know what you mean! I didn't cry but I did feel bad about that. 
And indeed, this world is turning (sorta) like the one portrayed in the sense that people are getting super lazy+dumb+ignorant (stuff like that) -_-

I read it in English. I think that annotating it ruined what might have been a good and inspiring piece of literature for me. I didn't cry, but looked very disappointedly at the book for many hours. I think this English class has ruined reading for me.

One of my favorite books. And one of the scariest, because it COULD happen. And things are getting closer and closer to it. Similar theme to 1984, really. I agree completely.

i have the same exact fear. i became incredibly mad with my mother when she bought the kindle--which to me is a replacement to paper books, much like in Fahrenheit 451.

I totally agree! Same with 1984, it's already starting to happen!

Same, as well as with 1984 and Brave New World.

Good book. It didn't make me cry, but i could see how it could.
A teacher in 8th grade tried to read it to us. She suggested Brave New World to me too, my favorite now all these years later. I always think of Clarisse as her, which makes me sad to think she died.

I have heard of this book often. I should read it.

All i can say is that i will never EVER let that happen.
i would die for a worthy cause.

never mind fiction, though you're right... for serious, real world worry, read Noam Chomsky.

Oh no, can't handle real world. That'd be just plain terrible. But I'll see if I find something of him here.

"Truth is stranger than fiction..."

Well, it sure does. Real life is unexpected and anything could happen, but if it's a book, then you have certain rules and stereothypes which make it predictable (most times)

We just finished reading this in english. I'm scared of what might happen to us too.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
when I read it, I was just scared.
same with Animal Farm, and same with 1984.
I'm still scared because... you're absolutely right.

I've been wanting to read that book for a while. This makes me want to read it even more.

I don't remember if I cried, I probably did...but I DO remember thinking "oh my god, he's right! We're going to become this!" It was a frightening realization...
Thank you so much for saying out out loud.

ST... I think I might love you. Because you're the first one I have found to admit this out load. I too cried.

That's on my to-read list, when I can find a copy. So, this secret came too early for me

I could write this one
That's what heppened to me when I read the book

That book was so depressing, I know how you feel. It would be such a shame if that is what our world turned into.

Nice icon.
This is the most true secret I've read so far.

I cried too, when I read it. One of my fave books

It's scary to imagine how true that is.
Hopefully we can make sure that future doesn't happen.

I understand completely. Bradbury was known for writing about what he believed would happen in the future. Who knows? Maybe this is exactly what is happening. And I will mourn that day and be like Guy and hoard my books.

never read the book but you just left me curious, i wanna read it now

Do it: it's one of my all-time favs, and Ray Bradbury is on my 'most amazing authors' list. :3
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I think exactly the same thing.
And after reading the book I truly understanded the power and value of literature.
People think I'm crazy because I like to read, but I know I'm not, they are the ones that are mistaken.

ah, that made me lose my faith in humanity a little

I know a bunch of people who love reading as much as I do♥
