i'm writing a summary of a book and i need to put this into different words.
Montag goes to Faber’s house, where he learns that a new Hound has been put on his trail, along with several helicopters and a television crew. Faber tells Montag that he is leaving for St. Louis to see a retired printer who may be able to help them. Montag gives Faber some money and tells him how to remove Montag’s scent from his house so the Hound will not enter it. Montag then takes some of Faber’s old clothes and runs off toward the river. The whole city watches as the chase unfolds on TV, but Montag manages to escape in the river and change into Faber’s clothes to disguise his scent. He drifts downstream into the country and follows a set of abandoned railroad tracks until he finds a group of renegade intellectuals (“the Book People”), led by a man named Granger, who welcome him. They are a part of a nationwide network of book lovers who have memorized many great works of literature and philosophy.

ttown_69, I understand what you are saying and I agree, but I also feel that your assessment of me is unfair and entirely inaccurate. I am one of the best in my class and am considdered "gifted", although I can't stand the term.
this is the last paragraph of a summary I am writing and I simply intended to get some advice about how to write it, if not get a spark from someone's ideas.

FOR THE LAST TIME PEOPLE!!!!!! i am fully aware that it is a direct copy from spark notes. this is not even part of the f ing assgnmet! i am doing it to help my classmates, whom i am attempting to teach, a better understanding of the book so that the lesson will make more sence. This is completly vouletary on my part and it pisses me off to see how quickly people jump to conclutions in this world and automaticly assume the worst.
