Burning Pleasure: Fahrenheit 451 Stories

In a future where people hate reading books and the government bans books, a "fireman" whose job is to burn books and his struggle against the technological consumption society he lives in to save books...

We know this fiction from Ray Bradbury's cult work Fahrenheit 451. So, in what kind of a chain of thought and inspiration could this fiction have developed? The stories in this book offer a very important opportunity to watch how the imagination and original language of a young writer, which found their mature expression in his first important work that made him famous, were born, transformed and developed.

Making the reader of 21st Century Turkey think that the "now" they live in sometimes goes beyond even the dark future depicted in these stories is both the most disturbing and, for this very reason, the most mind-expanding feature of The Pleasure of Burning.
