It was a pleasure to see things eaten, to see things blackened and changed" in this quote the assumption that the reader could make is that the firemen don't like books. They burn books because they think that books are not useful. The author chose to characterize a water hose with a great python because since the water hose shots to put down fires. The great python just shoots venom. They both relate because they both do something when they shoot. It is a negative thing that they are doing because they just start fires. At first I was confused I did not know what F451...
