1 answer:

7 0

Bradbury describes Mildred’s earbuds as seashells. He uses this metaphor in a reference as people hold a seashell up to one’s ear to hear the sound of the ocean.

This should alarm the reader because the <em>seashells are used by Montag’s society to control information and control potential rebellions</em>. This is a way to control individuals and paint a different reality. Also with the seashells always plugged in <em>people don’t have the time or a silence to listen to their own thoughts.</em>
