Bradbury ends Farenheit 451 with a hint of hope and faith in the future.It promises us that a new era is going to begin.The promise is of a better world in the future, a world where people are allowed to think and speak and have their own ideas. People will stop destroying books and start reading them.
Throughout the book Bradbury tries to explain how meaningless and empty lfe is without books , through Montague's wife Mildred.She is like an empty vessel she cares about nothing but her daily soaps.Her attempt to suicide shows us that she knows that her life is shallow and not worth living.At the end of the book,we are introduced to more characters like Carisse and Montague who want to bring about a change in this hollow way of life and we know that Montague's life will not be easier but his life now, has aim and inspiration.
At the end of the novel, Montag recalls the biblical passage, "To everything there is a season. A time to break down, a time to build up." The time for destruction has ended; the time for rebirth has begun.
