Fahrenheit 451 (1953)
5/10.
Sacrilege, I know. Started this a million times and always tune out. Didnt help I read Ray's intro saying he wrote the cunt in a LIBRARY ROOM, with typewriters, where you had to race off every hour to put another coin in the slot. First 20 pages just seemed to be overtly flowery prose, like he's sitting there in the library, under the clock, chundering out purloined sirloin to impress his high school teacher or some shit. Still, prolly the greatest idea for a book in book writing history
