Anyone read the book Fahrenheit 451?

Question

How did the storys characters and actions affect their understanding of the time period reacting to how the story ended

Answer 1

Granger is the leader of a group of wandering intellectual exiles, who memorize books so they will be saved. Where Beatty destroys, he creates; where Beatty uses fire for the purpose of burning, he uses it for the purpose of warming. His acceptance of Montag is considered the final step in Montag's metamorphosis, from embracing Beatty's ultimate value happiness and complacency, to embracing his value his love of knowledge.
Captain Beatty is Montag's boss and the fire chief. Once an avid reader himself, he is disgusted with the idea of books and detests how they all contradict and refute each other. In a removed scene by Bradbury, he invited Guy to his house where he shows him walls of books which he leaves to molder on their shelves. He tries to entice Guy back into the book-burning business, but is burnt alive by Montag when he underestimates Montag's resolve. Guy later realizes that Beatty might have wanted to die and provoked Guy until he did it. He is the symbolic opposite of Granger.
The city which Montag fled is soon bombed, along with the other cities around. It is implied that the bombs are nuclear weapons. Montag and the tramps return to the city to help rebuild the society so that people might once again learn from the books, and learn from the past.
