CHAPTER 7
Pages 69-81
Winston thinks about his wife, Katharine. She married him because she wanted to have a child for the Party. She later then left him because they were unable to produce a child.
Winston believed that only the proles have the power to destroy the Party because they make up 85% of the population and the Party doesn’t pay much attention to them.
Winston copies some passages from a history textbook that says how terrible the conditions were before the Revolution. He was curious if the textbook is factual or not. Winston questions why the Party is doing this and he so alone.

ReplyDeleteAlso I kinda don't really get what you mean in the last sentence.
Sorry, I wasn't specific.
ReplyDeleteHe questions why the Party wants to take control over their thoughts and why they want to 'brainwash' them.
I don't really know who the Party thinks they're kidding because they claim that they helped everyone and stuff, but it's obvious that the Party didn't improve because one just has to look at the city to see that the Party didn't improve, which run down buildings and grimy streets.
