FISHBURN, Matthew - Burning Books.

Title: Burning Books.
Description: Palgrave Macmillan 2008, 221pp, Illustrated. Hardcover, with dust jacket. In very good condition. This provocative new work examines the years between the Nazi book fires and the publication of Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 (1953), a period when book burning captured the popular imagination. It explores how embedded the myths of book burning have become in our cultural history, and illustrates the enduring appeal of a great cleansing bonfire.
