Sobre este artículo
New York: Ballantine Books, 1953. First Edition. Fine/Near Fine. First edition, first hardcover trade issue. Bound in publisher's red cloth with titles stamped in yellow on upper board and spine. Near Fine with light rubbing to corners and spine ends, in a Near Fine unclipped dust jacket with only slight fading to the spine (much less than normally encountered with this title), light wear at the crown, light rubbing and light edge wear. A lovely copy of a book difficult to locate in such nice condition.
Sinopsis
Fahrenheit 451 (Ballantine Books, 1953) by Ray Bradbury is a dystopian novel that presents a future American society in which the masses are hedonistic and critical thought through reading is outlawed. Written in the early years of the Cold War, the novel is a critique of what Bradbury saw as issues in American society of the era. Bradbury combined two of his early short stories, "The Pedestrian" and "Bright Phoenix," into The Fireman, a novella published in the February 1951 issue of Galaxy Science Fiction. Bradbury's publisher at Ballantine Books then suggested that he expand the work to make into a novel—Fahrenheit 451.
