symbols appears The Hound. The Hound’s actions and even its shape are reflections of the society Bradbury has predicted to come. Montag’s world continues on without thought; without any real reason. There is no learning, no growth, and no purpose. “The Mechanical Hound slept but did not sleep, lived but did not live in its gently humming, gently vibrating, softly illuminated kennel back in the dark corner of the firehouse'; (24), wrote Bradbury to describe this hound.

He wrote an autobiographical poem, "The Hound of Heaven", based on his experiences.

running through her veins as her body screamed out to be fed. They would keep her contained until they brought her to a small village, setting her free to feed for the first time and she did just that. She felt no guilt after that, taking her surviving hound and escaping into the night weeks after having been turned. She got as far away from the group as possible wanting only to return home...but she knew that would mean death. Her father could never accept her as a vampire, her mother would be destroyed
