Pretty fucking wild! A French company is releasing a copy of Ray Bradbury's classic "Farenheit 451" where the pages must be kissed by flame before they can be read.

This is a pretty great idea, encapsulating the entire point of the novel and giving it a unique spin. Read more below, as well as to see a video.

Nice and very unique way to catch reader attention. I never this kind of thing before. Thanks for sharing.

That is an incredible idea that will absolutely gain attention (as it should), but does the book come with a lighter too? I'm not too sure about the practicality of this idea. Although an appealing incentive for the first couple pages, having to burn each page to read feels counterproductive.
