Fahrenheit 451: Literary Devices

“We need not to be let alone. We need to be really bothered once in a while. How long is it since you were really bothered? About something important, about something real?” 
― Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

• Allusion: "First fireman: Benjamin Franklin", Bradbury makes an alussion of Franklin because he was consider one of the first firemans that burned books in America.

• Metaphor: "... and his hands were the hands of some amazing conductor playing all the symphonies of blazing and burning..." By this metaphor, Montag shows that he is proud of his jod thats why he compares himself to a fire conductor.

• Personification: "...To shove a marshmallow on a stick in the furnace while the pigeon-winged books died on the porch..." Is a personification of a book saying that it has wings just like the birds connecting him just like it could be a dying pigeon, this means the regret of Montags work as a fireman.

• Simile: "Her face was like a snow-covered island..." In the books is shown what Montag thinks about his wife so this means that she is a isolated person with cold personalitie just like an island full of snow.
