Научно-фантастический роман "451 градус по Фаренгейту" увидел свет в 1953 году, но и в XXI веке читатель найдёт в этой антиутопии немало параллелей с современностью. Действие разворачивается в будущем, в "счастливом" обществе потребления, в котором правительство делает всё возможное, чтобы не омрачать существование своих граждан. Живое человеческое общение сведено к минимуму, а книги уничтожают во избежание ненужных размышлений, колебаний и печали. В ушах людей - миниатюрные наушники, из которых...

Роман рисует антиутопическое общество будущего, а по сути - нашу реальность, доведенную до абсурда. Это одно из редких научно-фантастических произведений Брэдбери. Очень волнующее, трогательное и, вместе с тем, очень живое и динамичное. В рабочем кабинете писателя к стене прибит автомобильный номер "Р-451", притом что сам он за руль ни разу не садился.

История лета 1928 года, рассказанная двенадцатилетним Дугласом Сполдингом, голосом которого говорит сам Рэй Брэдбери. Летние месяцы наполнены для Дугласа и других жителей небольшого американского городка множеством событий - радостных и печальных, обыкновенных и поистине фантастических. Впрочем, чудеса, окружающие Дугласа, приходят в его жизнь с самыми простыми вещами: качелями на веранде, новенькими теннисными туфлями, способными поднять мальчишку над домами, стрёкотом газонокосилки, вином из...
