The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau. This book is about people who are living underground with little
resources because no one found the box with directions on how to get back to the world above ground. This connects to 1984 because the people of Ember are living in a miserable world, but they're okay with it because they don't know any better. This is like the mindless follower of the Party who are okay with their life's because they don't know any better.

This article is about how North Korea is a totalitarian country and the leader instills fear in the people. This connects to 1984 because this is almost exactly what the Party does, except the North Korean government doesn't go to as many extremes with punishing people.

The message Orwell was trying to send is that governments are turning into totalitarianism governments and this is not good for the people. His purpose is to take the issue to an extreme to make readers recognize the issue. From 1984, we can learn that we should always question what we're told even if it's from an authority figure, and we should pay attention to what the our government is doing.

I think other people should read 1984 because it is a classic book and it coined terms we have today, such as "Big Brother".

I liked that Orwell made 1984 have a realistic ending, and it did not have an unrealistic miracle ending. I did not like that there were not a lot of characters in the book because it made it boring. Most of the book is Winston's thoughts.

1. Living a double life takes a toll on a person’s mental health and sanity.

Winston mentions how exhausting it is to keep up his act while in public, like keeping his facial expression blank and holding conversations with people at work

When Winston writes in his diary, he does it fiercely with anger because he’s been holding in his true feelings for so long, and he also questions his own sanity a lot

What will happen to Winston? Will he continue to be a follower or stand up in rebellion against the government? Read to find out!!

This represents Winston's personality and the reality of his life. He has two different personalities: his true personality in which he hates the Party, and his fake personality that he has to show the world in which he is an obedient follower of the Party.

This is what I imagine Winston's diary to look like, old but clean and un-used. This is important to Winston because it's what started his rebellion.

Winston: He is a frail, middle-aged man who works for the Party in the Ministry of Truth. He is single and a little lonely because he is separated from his wife and he lost his family when he was younger. However, he is only lonely until he falls for a beautiful girl from work. Winston is against the party, but he doesn't dare show it, however he does join the brotherhood.
Julia: She is a young and beautiful girl who also works for the Ministry of Truth. She is apart of the anti-sex league, but this is ironic because she has been with many men including Winston. Julia is against the party, but she rebels by having fun and breaking little rules.
O'Brien: He is a stern man with a cold demeanor. He too works at the Ministry of Truth and he's an inner party member, but he secretly works for the Ministry of love as torturer. He pretends to be against the party and the leader of the Brotherhood even though he works for the party.
