1) Ask a question that you have about what's going on in the novel. What do you find confusing?
A part in the book I didn't really understand is when Montag is talking to Mildred about all the pills she had taken the night before and she won't admit that she took the whole bottle. Why won't she believe what Montag was telling her about what had happened that night? And why didn't Montag tell Mildred that she got her stomach pumped?
2) Even before Montag and his wife Mildred talk to one another we know that they are alienated (distant) from one another. How does the author convey this?
The author conveyed the distance between the couple when Montag is imagining his wife waiting for him in bed, but that acctually hasn't happened in about two years. This shows the distance between them because usually normal couples wait for each other.
