Fahrenheit 451

In Fahrenheit 451 Montag is the name of the protagonist. I found this rather intresting in two ways. One way was that "montag" is also the name of the main character in L'etranger or The Stranger as it was translated. These characters both live less than intresting lives and find themselves commiting crimes when neither suspected taht they would. In both cases the two montags realized the error of the way they had been living by the end of the book. further more, Montag means monday when translated from german. I think this was used as a subtle hint to the reader that while the message was important and the characters well developed the books both touch on subjects as unappealing to approach as a monday morning.
In my opinion this book was interesting. It was probably my favorite so far in that it did have the element of technology that kept my imagination turning but also had fascinating situations. Too the author did not make the technology the sole focus of the novel and that kept the human aspect in mind. I liked also that I could connect this book with a few other works of literature.
