* are there any settings in this novel which you have found to be beautiful? or disturbing? or memorable? describe these settings and comment on why they were meaningful to you.
I found the setting of when Guy Montag and Clarisse would talk outside beautiful and the most memorable. The setting was peaceful and both people were happy. I think I like this setting the most because it is the happiest feeling in the story and when they talk to each other, they seem to make each others day better. It was also meaningful to me because I love talking to people that look at life in a different way and make me understand things better.
The setting I thought was the most disturbing was when the firemen go to an old lady’s house and burn the house down because there were books in the attic. Not only do they do this, but they burn the house with the lady in it. She didn’t want to leave her books. I thought it was disturbing because they didn’t care what she thought or wanted and let her burn. They found that books were a matter of life and death which made me really shocked. I felt bad for the old lady and thought that this setting was sad and wrong. It disturbed me the most that the firemen just left silently after the house set fire. Since firemen these days are supposed to stop fires to save people, I think I felt weird because these firemen did the opposite. I couldn’t understand how people could be able to kill other people so easily over something so little as a book.
