Fahrenheit 451 - Irony Pt 2

Welcome back to my amazingly interesting blog. I know you must have been in suspense waiting for this next installment in the Irony series. Now to our feature presentation in the Irony series. Fahrenheit 451 Irony part 2!! Last blog we explored how the first two ironies of the book had to do with people and with firemen. The next irony has to be the fact that there is a mechanical beat called the hound. Most fire houses have a dalmatian type of dog you know the kind we all knew as kids the stereotypical fire dog. well in the sorry they have a machine the call the hound in a sort of tribute to the now extinct fire dog. The real irony is that the hound differs from a real fire dog in the fact that rather than saving people like a real fire dog may the hound is made specifically for killing people. With high tech sensors that allot he contraption to keep track of 10,000 different smells at once and a hypodermic needle for killing it's prey the hound is vastly different from the average fire dog. Another glaring irony is the fact that the wall to wall television Guy's wife, Mildred, likes so much is called the family. It insinuates that technology is taking the place of the family. Something that is supposed to give us more time to be with those we love by making less work is giving us more enjoyment than other people. we are becoming recluses in to technology.Fahrenheit 451 is a short novel full or ironies and funny situations. When you are reading this book you can not help but wonder what if something like this was real and you without even thinking about it compare your life to the story. Well I hope you enjoyed my small blog series on the ironies of Fahrenheit 451 there is much much more but to much to cover while blogging.
