1.) What do you find confusing? What is something you don’t understand?
- My question for this part of the story is why is it illegal to read books? I mean they tell great stories. Just because they don’t agree with each other doesn’t mean they have to be burned. They all express people’s ideas and thoughts and everyone is different.
2.) Montag compares Mildred (his wife) to Clarisse and says that Clarisse seems older. In what way does Clarisse act more mature and WHY do you think she is more mature? Why does Bradbury (the author) make the contrast between the two?
- I think Clarisse is a lot more mature and older than Mildred for a couple of reasons. In the beginning of the book when Montag meets Clarisse, it seems like they had a good conversation. Clarisse is more open to ideas and is eager to learn more. She sees past what other people think and speaks her own mind. While Mildred is more to herself and it seems like we hardly know her. The whole suicide thing says it all. I think the author makes this comparison to show that they are opposites yet appeal to Montag.

1.) I agree with you. I couldn't imagine a world without books. Books express other people's thoughts and feelings on life. I just couldn't imagine that.
2.)I also agree with you. Clarisse is this girl who has a great outlook on life. She's not afraid of speaking her mind. But Mildred, she is this secretive woman that is hard to get to know in the book.
