Throughout history and right up to the present day in parts of our world, governments have suppressed freedom of expression and information.

Over half a century ago, writer Ray Bradbury wrote a book about a future – some of which is here today.

"Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury is the book chosen by the Peoria Reads committee this year. Throughout the month of February, Peoria Reads is hosting a number of events. You can find a listing under Peoria Reads in the related content box.
