Part Two 1-9 1/2

Winston and Julia are in love and they are adulterers. They have sex often as an act of disobedience to the Big Brother. Julia is a wonderful actor, she plays the part as a dutiful comrade so that she can bend rules later on. She is not interested in a revolt at first, but after Winston talks with her about the possibilities and how life was before she seems to be on board. 

Hate week went on in these chapters. They give an example of the rewritten history. A man was giving a speech against the enemy, but in the midst of the speech the enemy had changed and he changed his speech. All the posters and propaganda had to be changed so that nothing could be retraced. 

The act of rewriting history is revolting, but who controls the past controls all. To rewrite past events is sad because the people involved are no longer a memory or anything at all. Without history we would never grow as a civilization because we would never learn anything. 

Winston and Julia meet with O'Brien to learn about the Brotherhood. They read the book and are willing to give up everything; appearance, life, work, money for this cause except for eachother.
