**who —** Granger, the leader of the exiles by the river — drifters who have each memorised a book to keep it alive.
**what —** The answer Bradbury offers: not to fight the fire but to outlast it, carrying the classics whole in human memory.
**where —** In the woods along the river, after the city burns.
**why —** Because when the page can burn, the person who remembers becomes the indestructible library.
**how —** By organising the ‘book people,’ each assigned a text to <b>become</b>, waiting for a world ready to read again.

**the seal —** We don't carry the books — we are them; burn every page you like, the words are safe in our heads, and we'll plant them again when the city's ash is cool.
