How does Bradbury create irony in his story "The Pedestrian"?

Question

A. The dogs in the neighborhoods are never seen and always heard.
B. Mead's house is the only brightly lit house on the street at night.
C. The police car asks Mead several questions before arresting him.
D. Mead's job as a writer isn't earning him much money.

Answer 1

B. Mead's house is the only brightly lit house on the street at night.

This creates irony as typically a brightly lit house symbolizes warmth, comfort, and family life, but in this story, it represents isolation and non-conformity.
