Fahrenheit 451 Notes #1

Page 5
- Montag feels as if he is being watch and describes what he is feeling; this is relatable because I have felt those feelings before
- Clarisse's dress is white showing innocence
Question: Why is the girl out walking at night?
- The girl is different so Montag notices her

Page 6
- "How oddly you say that." Montag is almost intimidated
- "They walked in the warm-cool blowing night..." This is relatable. (easy to understand)

Page 7
- Candlelight is a symbol for humans in my opinion (it is independent and needs no electricity, it is a magical light source)

Page 8
- Clarisse tells Montag that she heard that houses burned down accidentally and he laughs. He does this because he doesnt know if it is true or not himself.

Page 9
- the author predicts such things as parlor walls (projectors)
- Clarisse talks about the man on the moon showing that she thinks like s child

Clarisse's uncle is the same man that got arrested in another story by Bradbury called "The Pedestrian"
