    In Fahrenheit 451, a dystopian novel, Ray Bradbury portrays Mildred as an extremely unintelligent character who does not connect with reality throughout the book. Mildred us very caught up in her television “family” which Montag questions, do they “Love you, love you very much, love you with all their heart” (page). This ascertains that Mildred shows qualities of being absent minded. As a human being separating television from reality should be a skill that is possessed because their are huge differences between the two settings.

    World War Z

    In 2006, a great piece of literature was written, its name: World War Z by Max Brooks. This book documents the survivors of the World War Z apocalypse; while of course this book is fictional it draws you in and will at times make you feel like you are reading a piece of non-fictional literature. This is what fascinated me most by it. Not only did the book draw you in with its non-fictional fiction style, its theme draws on a central problem on us as humans today. We are ignorant, in whole or in part, regardless if there are many or few. It’s sad that we are that way today, from all the wars to all the bomb threats that are thrown around annually by almost anybody and everybody because its “fear” that runs us as a society today. World War Z by Max Brooks brilliantly shows this theme and expands on it to reach deep inside the human psyche to reveal our dark, segregated minds.…

The story’s central character, Winston Smith, is faced with several challenges set forth by the ruling government, referred to as the Party.
