Summarizer: Part 1, Chapter 3 & 4

CHAPTER 3
pages 29-37

CHAPTER 4
pages 38-48

That night, Winston dreamt about his family. The person who stock out to him was his mother who disappeared when he was only ten. The loud whistle from the telescreen woke Winston up from his dream and made everyone do morning exercises called The Physical Jerks. As he was doing the Physical Jerks, he was remembering childhood events. Winston was ordered to write an order for Big Brother’s appraisal to a make believe war hero Comrade Ogilvy. Winston was angry that Big Brother was making this up to favor him.

  1. Thanks for the summary :)

    I really wonder what happened with Winston and his family cause it seems like there's a mystery or something.

  2. Yeah, I'm not really sure about that either.

  3. I think his family was taken by the government or something because he says they "disappeared", and he also said that when the someone was found for committing a crime, they were rarely tried, and they were just taken and killed or something, so the government made it look as if they "disappeared".

  4. I agree with all you guys said before I finished the book... but everything happens for a reason and you will get it when you finish reading
