This year marks the 50th anniversary of Ray Bradbury's sci-fi classic "Fahrenheit 451". We'll discuss the book's broad issues of censorship and totalitarianism and why this novel is still being talked about today. Laura's guests are Jim Kelly, local Seacoast author and member of the NH Council on the Arts, David Galef, Professor of English at the University of Mississippi and former Assistant Editor for Galaxy Magazine, and Bob Lawson, Artistic Director for Andy's Summer Playhouse in Wilton. Bob put on a production of Fahrenheit 451 in August.
