Why did Beatty choose to allude to Icarus above all other allusions he could have used? #aplac3

@MaddieFaulkne11 I think it may have been. It mentioned earlier in the book how advanced our technology was so its plausible. #aplac3

I also think people have a great fascination with fire. I always have. Just watching a fire in a fireplace or the flickering light of a candle relaxed and intrigued me.

Why did Beatty hate books so much? Did it have anything to do with the fact that he wanted to die? #aplac3

@jnicholey I believe so. He definitely had a checkmate attitude when talking to Montag. He thought he already won.

When Faber says that books have pores it makes them feel real and in a way they are. They tell the stories of people and not just their actions but every thought. Its documentation of the living which makes it alive. #aplac3

What exactly are parlor families and what is the use? #aplac3

#aplac3 I agree with Faber that books have a certain smell that is engraved into you. My childhood smelt like books- new or old.

He wants to start seeing a new perspective of life now that his eyes have been opened to the possibility of something more.

Why does Guy want to start reading now when he has clearly been stealing books for a while? #aplac3

[Deerwoo @Deerwoo2]

I think the books mean knowledge and free will. Historically people would burn books to steal knowledge and hope from the people. When the world of fantasy and joy dissipates then you only see what you're living, not what you could be living. #aplac3

I relate to Clarissa in the way of looking at things others may not and observing. Stopping to look at someone's body language or how things look. Sometimes I feel older than my body and sometimes I feel younger, depending on the day. #aplac3

Is this society a utopia, dystopia or what the world will evolve into? Shen did this perspective become normality? #aplac3
