The answer is a) All of the answer choices are correct.
Fahrenheit 451 (1953) by Ray Bradbury is a novel which brings out the cultural political and social environment in America in the early 1950s.
Reasoning
- Guy Montag is the hero and is a fireman who loves his job.
- He enjoys setting fires to the books and enforcing his society’s anti-book laws.
- In the initial part of the story Guy Montag does not like books. The sentence “It was a pleasure to burn” brings out Montag's dislike for the books and his pleasure at burning them.
Hope this helps.
