And your books and all of your things in your home will be burned. “...while the flapping pigeon-winged books died on the porch” All of this adds to the ignorance of people and the people not thinking and adding to the dystopia. In Montag’s society you can’t talk. Talking is looked down upon and then you are singled out by the people and you won’t have any what this society calls “friends” .
