Fahrenheit 451 #6

Comments:
  • Montag stoled about 20 books, and is really into reading books for some reason now.
  • Montag and Mildred begin to read the books quietly in hopes of no one catching them.
  • He remininses on meeting a man named Faber.
  • Montage decides to make copies of this book and return it back to beatty.
  • On his way to go see Faber Montag begins to think about his significance with the bible. He is unable to think staaight since the train was too loud.
Questions:
  • I dont get it, i thought Mildred died?
  • Whe is Mildred's temper so dangerous?
  • Why is he stealing books? is it an addiction?
  • Does Faber even car eto help out Montag?
Words:
  • titillation(pg89)-to excite or arouse agreeably
  • noncombustible(pg90)-not flammable
  • torrent(pg91)-a stream of water flowing with great rapidity and violence
Literary Terms:
  • "as in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over; so in a series ok kindnesses there is at least one which makes the heart run over."(pg 99)- metaphor
  • "it was dead but it was alive"(pag 101)-metaphor

Summary:
These couple of pages leave me confused as to how Mildred is possibly alive. These pages also open to how obsessed Montag is about books now.
