7th (pt. 2)

 Montag and Mildred are reading the books in the house together when a dog comes to the door. Montag tells Mildred to stop reading the books and to stay were she is. He goes to the door to see if it is the mechanical hound, but it is Faber. Faber is a former english teacher. Montag's mind immediately goes to the fact that Faber could help him comprehend what is going on. Faber goes home and Montag gets on the subway. He is trying to memorize the book as many different commercials and sounds are playing in the background. I feel as though Montag is doing the right thing by giving the book back and trying to memorize it, but I also feel like it will backfire on him. If he tells somebody that he has a book memorized then he is going to get in a lot of trouble. He should just abide by the rules and give it back after 24 hours.


Literary elements:

"My family is people. They tell me things: I laugh they laugh! And the colors!" this is irony 

"He stared at the parlor that was dead and gray as the waters of an ocean that might teem with life if they switched on the electronic sun." This is a similie

Vocabulary words:

Suffused means means to spread over something gradually
