This book is a bit strange in how they put chapters. At first I thought the big bold letters were chapters but, I don't think chapters are 100 pages long so I went to an online website where you can read 1984 for free online to see that it's parts and within that, it's chapters. TEEHEE.
CHAPTER 1
Pages 1-20
This book explains the story about Winston at around April of 1984. He was on a lunch break from his job in the Ministry of Truth. Everywhere he went, he saw a big poster that says, “BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU”. Winston begins to keep a Diary and explained what he watched like night.
The next day, two people visited Winston’s work place, a dark-haired girl and O’Brien. He hated her because he realized that he was attracted to her, but can’t have her. After the Two Minute Hate, everyone is chanting “B-B”. Winston felt disgust and record his feelings onto his diary.

I think that they story is really confusing but reading what you summarize helps me refresh what I have read and understand everything :)
ReplyDeleteNo problem you guys! (:
ReplyDeleteI don't think his only reason of hating her was because he wanted her but couldn't have her, but also because he thinks she might be part of the Thought Police.
