The book "Fahrenheit 451" was written by whom?

The story behind the answer

Ray Bradbury wrote Fahrenheit 451 (1953), a seminal dystopian novel about censorship and a future society where “firemen” burn books. It follows Guy Montag’s awakening to the power of literature and free thought. The title refers to the temperature at which paper is said to ignite, underscoring the book’s central theme: the destructive consequences of suppressing ideas.

To avoid confusion: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was a composer, Stephen King is known for horror like The Shining, and R. L. Stine wrote Goosebumps. Memory tip: think “Ray” like a heat ray and “Fahrenheit” as a temperature—Ray Bradbury = heat and burning pages. Bradbury’s work remains a touchstone in debates about censorship, media saturation, and the importance of critical thinking.
