Fahrenheit 451 By Ray Bradbury

  Compare and contrast the characters of Mildred and Clarisse. How is one a threat to the stability of the ideas presented in Fahrenheit 451 and the other an ideal example of a Fahrenheit 451 character? What roles do they play in this society? Can either truly survive? How have each of these characters been influenced? Think of the role of women in the 1950s America for this paper.
