Fahrenheit 451 NOTES pages 110-120


  • "Beatty never drove, but he was driving tonight, slamming the Salamander around corners, leaning forward high on the driver's throne, his massive black slicker flapping out behind so that he seemed a great black bat flying above the engine..." page 109 We can foreshadow that something bad might happen based on the tone of the text and the adjectives used such as "slamming" and "black". And the the fact that the text mentions that Beatty never usually drives which means that that certain night was not like others.
  • Beatty ends up driving the Salamander to Montag's house which could only mean one thing, they are there to burn him down. 
  • "Didn't I hint enough when I sent the Hound around your place?" page 113 So that's why the mechanical hound was outside their house on that one rainy day.
  • Beatty is making Montag burn his own house and he actually felt good about it. page 116
  • "When you're quite finished," said Beatty behind him,"you're under arrent" page 117
  • It was Mildred and her friends who turned Montag in. page 117
  • Beatty found Montag's earpiece page 118
  • Montag killed the mechanical hound.page 120
