What do you think of my interpretation of.....???

Question

interpretation of Fahrenheit 451.. well the theme of the book really...

I was thinking it was "even thought the median is lost the idea lives on".. something along those lines...lol

i guess where in going with this is that the books were lost but the message they carried lives somewhere... though i have to tie that in with characterization used by the author,,, but I'm not sure how to really tie both together... or, well, what characterization in the story really illustrates my theme...

is my theme not the best? or am i missing some use full characterization?

do you have a better theme? do you have some characterization?

or umm some characterization that fits with my theme? etc????

any help is welcomed and very appreciated!

Thank You in advance! :D

Answer 1

ur theme sounds good to me, although i think ur thinking of the word "medium" not "median."  

for characterization, maybe u could use clarisse.  she is the one who causes guy to really think about his life and everything thats happening around him.  in that case, she would be the "medium."  even though she dies soon after, her idea lived on in guy, who continues on to make a difference in the world.  

hopefully that fits in w/what ur looking for.  i havent read this book in a looong time XD
