Synopsis
Ray Bradbury's classic dystopian novel from the early Cold War days gets a timely and compelling recasting as a graphic novel by illustrator and adaptor Tim Hamilton. Hamilton captures the story's paranoid noir atmosphere with his stark black background and shading and his focused palette of blues and grays. Until the flames come, that is, and when they do, the dramatic the colors explode. Oranges and reds tear across the pages as the disaffected hero, Montag, investigates what he and his society have been missing since the people voted to burn books, taking the goal of "Everyone Made Equal" to a frighteningly oppressive extreme.

Publisher's Note
A graphic novel interpretation of the genre master's classic dystopian work is a visual translation of the story of career fireman Guy Montag's awakening to the dark aspects of government-controlled thought and the value of philosophy, theology, and literature. Simultaneous.

Industry Reviews
"For the first time, readers will experience the visual spectacle of Ray Bradbury's dystopian novel, boldly illustrated by Tim Hamilton...."
(07/01/2009)

"[O]ne of the best graphic novels of 2009...Rendered in a vividly noir manner...FAHRENHEIT 451: THE AUTHORIZED ADAPTATION adds to the claustrophobia of Bradbury's original nightmare vision."
(07/30/2009)

"Vibrant and vital, Hamilton's take on FAHRENHEIT 451 is far more than an illustrated version of Bradbury's 1953 classic. While its text belongs to Bradbury, Hamilton...saturates the story with his own evocative energy and vision. He doesn't use all of Bradbury's words, instead allowing the story's inherent visual propulsion to add even more depth and texture to an already-indelible tale."
