"Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury

What can I possibly say about Ray Bradbury's novel "Fahrenheit 451"?

If you haven't read it yet, stop whatever you're doing and go find a copy of it.  Then read.

There should be a reading list for life, and "Fahrenheit 451" should be on it.

This novel is sparse and in some ways simplistic, and yet that's part of it's power.  The futuristic world of "Fahrenheit 451" seems dramatic, and yet in many ways it's not that different from the way we live now.
