"It was a pleasure to burn."

"It was a pleasure to burn." These memorable words begin Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury’s acclaimed story of a society in which books are forbidden and firemen are paid to burn them, along with the homes in which they are hidden.This informal presentation, given in celebration of Banned Books Week, will deal with Bradbury’s creative process for writing Fahrenheit 451 and the social issues that motivated him to write what would become a modern classic. Celebrate the freedom to read with the Georgia College Library. When: Monday, October 1, 7pm Where: University Museum Education Room
