NOW AN HBO FILM STARRING MICHAEL B. JORDAN AND MICHAEL SHANNON
Sixty years after its originally publication, Ray Bradbury’s internationally acclaimed novel Fahrenheit 451 stands as a classic of world literature set in a bleak, dystopian future. Today its message has grown more relevant than ever before.
Guy Montag is a fireman. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television “family.” But when he meets an eccentric young neighbor, Clarisse, who introduces him to a past where people didn’t live in fear and to a present where one sees the world through the ideas in books instead of the mindless chatter of television, Montag begins to question everything he has ever known.

A stunning and thought-provoking novel that explores race, identity, and family. The story follows twin sisters who grow up in a small, segregated Southern town, and whose lives take dramatically different paths. Bennett's writing is evocative and powerful, and her characters are fully realized and complex. The themes of passing and colorism are handled with great care and sensitivity, and the novel offers a nuanced and insightful commentary on the legacy of racism in America. "The Vanishing Half" is a beautifully crafted and deeply affecting novel that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.

Ich kann das Buch wirklich nur empfehlen! Es liest sich wie von selbst und regt zum Nachdenken an. Erfrischend und überraschend - allzu oft hätte ich einen anderen Ausgang erwartet.
