Ray Bradbury's classic novel of resistance, Fahrenheit 451, is available for the first time in a deluxe hardcover edition featuring:

*** Striking slipcase with foil

Sprayed edges
Ribbon marker
Designed endpapers**

In the dystopian America of Fahrenheit 451 , knowledge is the enemy, and mass censorship reigns. Guy Montag is a fireman. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities---the printed book---along with the houses in which they are hidden. It is not until he meets his eccentric neighbor, Clarisse, that he begins to question everything he has ever known. Published over seventy years ago, Ray Bradbury's internationally acclaimed novel stands as the most enduring critique of censorship. Today, its message is more relevant than ever before.
