They too were forgotten, which is a fundamental aspect of the novel. It's not a society in which a regime burned books to extinction but rather the public no longer wanted any books. Nevertheless, the government is paranoid, and rightly so, that those pesky books that still remain might ignite some sort of awakening. The cyclical view presented by the end of the novel seems to indicate that is exactly what may happen.heylucashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15087172384352134022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2355641177143194521.post-65181828425235783522011-06-26T08:54:52.238-04:002011-06-26T08:54:52.238-04:00Mind Belz pick ups the same TS Eliot quote in her ...Mind Belz pick ups the same TS Eliot quote in her July 2 column in World Magazine.
