by Ray Bradbury (184 pgs)
Guy Montag is a fireman. Which is to say, he burns books and protects society from literacy. Somewhere along the way he loses sight of the societal norms and begins to question the reasons for the things he does. Pretty soon he finds himself at odds with his entire culture.
A classic by one of my favorite authors, I found this book quite disturbing and I'm afraid I identify with it far too well. The four page essay at the back of the edition I read was amazing.

Is it true that there was a censored version of this book in circulation for years?
