In our most recent book we read, Fahrenheit 451, we learned about their intricate and sheltered society. The people living in that society were unhappy, not well educated, and they were told to think all of these wrong thoughts. They were for the most part an absolute miserable and abhorrent society. They were very much different than our modern day society. Although their society seems absolutely dreadful and horrid, they were very technologically advanced.
