This book in my opinion was confusing and boring at first. But when it got to the end of part 2 and the beginning of part 3 it captured my interest. It’s like everything about the whole book was put into that section of the book. Winston getting caught by the Thought Police/Mr. Charrington whom Winston thought was a prole, facing his biggest fear at Room 101, and worst of all was his and Julia betrayal for each other when they both said that they will never betrayed their love for each other. When I think about it, you always knew that no matter what they will get caught. I always had my suspicion on O’Brien because since Winston bumped into O’Brien at work. He just gave me a vibe of someone you can’t trust. And at the end you see that it was O’Brien who was torturing Winston and still Winston thought that O’Brien was helping him. At chapter VI, you see whole new prospective of what Winton really thinks of the Party. What really caught my interest about this chapter is that in the end when they won a battle, Winston had a dream that he should be dead of what he did against the Party. I think that O’Brien was trying to tell Winston that in the end you will love Big Brother no matter what because in the end you will realized that all the things you done was wrong and you want to die so you’ll come back and beg us to kill you for it, which they will grant their last wish. I think I do understand this book better now because I finally understand how George Orwell writes.
George Orwell writes great science fiction books, which I might mention this one was great. Knowing that his wording and writing style was kind of difficult but although the whole book was excellent to read. In one way, 1984 did change my way of thinking of the world we live in nowadays. I am starting to ask questions to myself and my surrounding that the way of lives of Oceania, could it be true to our world and time as well. How do we know for sure that our government isn’t hiding things from us and manipulating us? When I think about it this way the three slogans they have it seem true in our world as well. War is Peace, Ignorance is Strength and Freedom is Slavery.
