Fahrenheit 451 pp. 81-91

One quetion I have is what does Montag mean when he says, "and maybe if I talk long enough, it'll make sense."? What will make sense?

B. Faber jokingly proposes a plan of action and then starts to discuss it seriously with Montag. What is the plan of action? More importantly, why does he say it won’t work? Analyze his answer. Why won't it work?

The plan is to print extra copies of the books, plant them in the firemen's houses, turn in an alarm, and watch their houses burn. One reason Faber says it won't work is because the war is going on and everybody has their parlors on and the "families" might see them. I think it won't work because they are far more "avergae" people then there are professors, and othe people who are willing to become knowledgeable. Another reason I belive it won't work is because there are probably going to some professors and other people who want or love to read that are not going to be willing to die over books especially since they know that it won't work. That is why I think it won't work.

Anjelica,

I commented on your descriptive writing, which I enjoyed reading, but I noticed that you are missing a lot of assignments here ...
