Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury, is a book about a dystopia where books are outlawed and people are persecuted for owning them. Society is slowly devolving and some technology is regressing. The story follows Guy, a fireman responsible for burning the books (haha irony) but instead keeps a collection of his own. The book basically outlines his world and his eventual escape from it. (read the rest on SparkN°tes). I chose this story because the persecution and loss of knowledge seen to flow together into something that could be directly translated to insects. Also, the similarity between the hive minded ants and the society made a connection randomly in my mind.
The scenes I have in mind is Guy salvaging a book from a discovered collection, the government chasing after him, and his eventual escape. These may not end up being the 3 scenes.
