MOOD


There are several moods in the story and the changes are so different. Fro, Montag view it starts out as satisfaction. Montag feels satisfied with being a fireman, burning houses and books, and living in the modern technology. However, everything changes when he meets a seventeen year old girl that is out of the ordinary. After a short walk with the girl Montag becomes confused. He try’s hard to figure out the truth about the society and the literary world. When he finds out that literature are an important piece of life he is disappointed. However, after he runs away from his house and, with Faber’s help, he finds “the Book People.” He is hopeful about finding others that enjoy literature. Most people will say that the book is saddening but I do not think so. It is because in the mist of confusion and the lies that Montag lives in that there is people like Clarisse that is there to make a change in the world for a better place to live. That is why I think the book is filled with hope more than sadness.

I liked your passage because it was expressed well in simple words. You summarized the mood well by categorizing it and putting pictures in it.

Hey nice post!!
Wow I have to agree that there is a lot of hope inside this book of paper and there are lots to look forward to even at the end of the book. But I'm not sure if the book is filled with sadness, it is more filled with expression than sadness.
But never nice post, creative
