Fahrenheit 451
The war. It began and ended in a few seconds. The war was the death for thousands all over the world, and while Montag describes the last few seconds of Mildred's life, he may as well have been describing the death of almost all of the inhabitants of their city. Mildred and Montag had an interesting relationship, one that parallels that of the relationship between the people of the city, and those such as Clarisse, Faber, and the hobos in the country. In the beginning of the novel, most readers would not be able to distinguish any kind of dividing line between Mildred and Guy Montag, yet as the story continues, the line becomes more clear. Such as was the story of many of the hobos; Montag at first has no idea of what is in a book. He never pauses to think about what would make books such a threat as to need to burn them. Once he has discovered
They had created their own society, one that the members of cities were not aware of, and would not have understood if they were. Montag felt uncomfortable at the fact that he would not miss Mildred, and Granger said that he did not miss his grandfather, he missed the beautiful things he did, and how he will be remembered because he left something behind. Many hobos were driven to the countryside also, and over time developed a web-like system in order to preserve as many books as was possible. Husbands, wives; they meant nothing. the knowledge, and freedom of mind that comes with books, it is worth his life to never lose it. The last thing that they saw was an empty face looking back from the T. The moment that first bothered them was when the T. Even then, a discussion of politics only included which of the two candidates was better looking. This is possibly what the city inhabitants realized when they looked at those empty faces. Mildred never thought she was unhappy, wet always was, because she didn't really know what being happy was.
