Fahrenheit 451 Style Analysis
Style:
Ray Bradbury has a great useage of style. He uses italics,dialogue, personification, goes in depth, and repetition. On page 6 Montag states,” No. Houses have always been fireproof, take my word for it.” Here Bradbury italicizes the word always to add a more tone to what Montag said. Also gets Montag’s point understood. He uses dialogue too. “Montag…?” “It doesn’t like me,” said Montag “What, the Hound?’ (p 24). Bradbury adds this to define Montag’s characteristic with the Hound. Now we can see that Montag doesn’t like the Hound. On page 110 the books states,”A great nuzzling gout of fire leapt out to lap at the books and knock them against the wall” This sentence from the book helps define the rapid growth of the fire. The words “leapt” …show more content…
On page 2 the book claims,” He walked out of the fire station along the midnight street toward the subway where the silent air-propelled train slid soundlessly down its lubricated flue in the earth and let him out with a great puff of warm air onto the cream-tiled escalator rising to the suburb.” Bradbury uses the words “silent” and “soundlessly” for the reader. It helps relate the reader to the book because we can hear and sense the words. Also “cream-tiled” helps us have an image of the surroundings of Montag in the escalator. Therefore this is relatable too because we can vision a cream-tiled escalator. Lastly, Bradbury uses repetition. “ going over, going over, going over, one two, one two, one two, six of them, nine of them…” (p 11). Badbury uses repetition here to create Montag’s thoughts. Also supports the idea of how chaotic everything is. In the end, Bradbury’s style affects many different parts and pieces of Fahrenheit 451. His italics are used for a better emphasis on words and produces a more realistic dialogue. Dialogue helps with character interaction and the thoughts outside Montag’s head. Also helps us determine characteristics of certain characters in the book. As he goes in depth, it assists the image of what he’s trying to explain; paints a better picture in our head. Last, he uses repetition to define the chaos inside
