Farenheit 451, Brave New World

I really enjoyed Farenheit 451.  Its amazing how a government can create a dystopia, or a society where the citizens think everything's perfect, but they are really being controlled.  The government controls what the people believe by burning books and instilling ideas into the people's minds by their uses of different kinds of propaganda.  These types of futuristic stories always grab my attention easily.

Another novel that incoroprates the idea of a dystopia is Brave New World.  I just find it amazing how the government can control so much.  It makes me wonder how much does my own government control over me that I am not even aware of.  This story taught me that it is important to be an individual, and we are lucky and priveliged to have the amount of freedom that we do in our country.
