We're not the only folks still reading this classic. It's the current selection for the Moline Public Library's "Big Read," the NEA-sponsored program that gets communities involved in reading important works.
Okay, we're a small community, but what the heck. Kelly suggested we give "451" a try. I haven't read it in years, so I say go for it. Even Bonnie, who taught it in her English classes for years agrees.
It's a short novel, as I recall, a story about a future society in which critical thinking and reading are discouraged.
Helloooo! The future is here....
