Theme: Identity I chose the theme identity because it the beginning of the book Guy Montag was all about burning books and being a fireman but in the end of the book he found his true identity. Guy Montag stopped being a fireman because he found out that he liked books.

Text Suport: Fool, thought Montag to himself, you'll give it away. At the last fire, a book of fairy tales, he'd glanced at a single line. "I mean," he said, "in the old days, before homes were completely fireproofed–" Suddenly it seemed a much younger voice was speaking for him. He opened his mouth and it was Clarisse McClellan saying, "Didn't firemen prevent fires rather than stoke them up and get them going?"

Text Support: "You're one of the few who put up with me. That is why I think its so strange you're a fireman, it just doesn't seem right for you".

Text Support: "He felt his body divide itself into a hotness and a coldness a softness and a hardness, a trembling and a not trembling the two halves grinding one upon the other"
