{"product_id":"fahrenheit-451-a-novel-flamingo-moder","title":"Fahrenheit 451\t\t\t\t\tA Novel \t\t\t\t\t\t\t- Flamingo Moder","description":"The hauntingly prophetic classic novel set in a not-too-distant future where books are burned by a special task force of firemen.\n\nOver 1 million copies sold in the UK.\n\nGuy Montag is a fireman. His job is to burn books, which are forbidden, being the source of all discord and unhappiness. Even so, Montag is unhappy; there is discord in his marriage. Are books hidden in his house? The Mechanical Hound of the Fire Department, armed with a lethal hypodermic, escorted by helicopters, is ready to track down those dissidents who defy society to preserve and read books.\n\nThe classic novel of a post-literate future, 'Fahrenheit 451' stands alongside Orwell's '1984' and Huxley's 'Brave New World' as a prophetic account of Western civilization's enslavement by the media, drugs and conformity.\n\nBradbury's powerful and poetic prose combines with uncanny insight into the potential of technology to create a novel which over fifty years from first publication, still has the power to dazzle and shock.","brand":"Ray Bradbury","offers":[{"title":"HarperCollins Publishers \/ 04 Aug 2008 \/ 364","offer_id":54298709524821,"sku":"9780006546061","price":3.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0501\/4188\/8668\/files\/9780006546061.webp?v=1783303444","url":"https:\/\/www.bookworld.ie\/products\/fahrenheit-451-a-novel-flamingo-moder","provider":"Book World Ireland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
