Winston starts to have a weird interaction with a woman from work named Julia, and in his dairy he starts to write about memories he had and dreams he once had. Smith is particularly interested on a guy from the Inner Party named O´Brien. Winston believes O´Brian is a voice from one of his dreams he had. Smith starts to remember things about his childhood about her mother and sister. Winston starts to see that he is the only one who remembers things. He feels that Julia is a member of the Thought Police. He starts having sexual desires, so he goes with a prostitute. Tell us that he has been eleven years separated from his wife, Katharine. His wife was really cold, distant, and fanatic to the Party.  He starts to imagine a revolution that will overthrow the Party. He sees how three men are accuse of crimes they did not make, and fears of the power of the Party. He believes the only person in his side is O´Brien. He finishes his diary with a phrase "Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows." That phrase represent all the oppression that they live, that no one can say the truth, so nothing is given just taken, like their freedom. He was in a bomb accident, acts like nothing happened, and goes to a pub, then to the antique shop. Mr. Charrington the shop owner takes him upstairs to a room where there are no telescreens. Where he sees a drawing of a church that results to be a museum downtown. Julia is following him and he thinks the museum is where O´Brian told Smith to meet him. Julia confesses in note that he loves Smith, after he helped her to get up. They meet in a hideout and Julia tells personal things about her, she reveals that she likes intimacy contact, and her hate towards the Party. If they get caught "We are the dead", because they are breaking the rules. Winston makes a deal with Mr. Charrington to rent the upstairs room that has no telescreens, for his affair with Julia. Julia brought luxuries and Winston results to be afraid of rats.They made a nursery rhyme. Winston is back at work and he keeps meeting Julia at the secret room. Winston tries to convince Julia that they are living in a war and that history is being changed every time. Winston talks with         O´Brain at work and O´Brian gave his address to him. Smith believes he is in his side and take this meeting as sign. The last time Wiston saw her mother was when he stole a chocolate from her sister and he believes he tells Julia that he is the reason of her mother´s death. They confess their crimes towards the Party to O´Brien, at his house. Where he explains to them the Secret Brotherhood, their mission is to eliminate the Big Brother and the Party. ]]> 2018-10-04 22:34:36 UTC https://padlet.com/pablo_varela/c36koivbwgi0/wish/289411257 4) 1984 pablo_varela https://padlet.com/pablo_varela/c36koivbwgi0/wish/289411448 -The book has been really interesting, for several reasons. I like how people from 1949 seem how the future would be in 1984, and since we are in 2018 I know is not the future they predicted. The prediction of 1984, I can related more to this period of time, and that makes it memorable. It is interesting the whole thing of the Secret Brotherhood, because I have always love the secret societies.
-Being underwatch  all the time by the Big Brother  the book gives us resolutions by escaping through reading, love, and starting a revolution. Another solution is that secret room and the Secret Brotherhood.
-The book has made me see reality we are watch and heard twenty-four hours a day by the government just waiting to get rid of the one who go against the system. I actually think the politics we have today are for controlling us the only way to be free is going against the system, if you go against the system you are above the system. The Secret Brotherhood I can related it to the EZLN both are groups that are uncomfortable with the government and their mission is to overthrow the government.

Also I like the secret society that has appear and the relationship Smith has with Julia. It is a really interesting book but with a huge level of english, and difficult reading. It is incredible how many things on the book is similar to our present day. Not only the how society is similar today, but the technology they predicted it already exists. I like the way his relationship develops with Julia. I like the way Julia and Smith have talk about all their thoughts. I loved the whole secret society that they have joined (Secret Brotherhood]]> 2018-10-04 22:37:13 UTC https://padlet.com/pablo_varela/c36koivbwgi0/wish/289411601 pablo_varela https://padlet.com/pablo_varela/c36koivbwgi0/wish/289429372 2018-10-05 00:56:02 UTC https://padlet.com/pablo_varela/c36koivbwgi0/wish/289429372 3) 1984 pablo_varela https://padlet.com/pablo_varela/c36koivbwgi0/wish/289429461   ]]> 2018-10-05 00:56:57 UTC https://padlet.com/pablo_varela/c36koivbwgi0/wish/289429461
