I just re-read it, and as it raises so many questions about life, and perhaps humanity, or rather politics in general, extremism, totalitarianism etc etc, I was wondering what you people think of it?
Personaly, I think its fantastic. The whole final part, with Winston and O'Brian is just some of the best text I have ever read, and the ideas it throws up, from the objective of pure power, of building society on hate rather than 'equality', and the most horrible thing, the fact that the Party can get inside what is deemed to be untouchable - 'the place inside' and the foot stamping on the face for ever, and the way Winston loves Big Brother - just helpless. Bla.

whoops that was DébUK! Tóm, why are you logged into your account on my computer? FOOL!
Have they really done that? It seems ironic as it is slightly 'Big Brotherish' for the publishers to decide what WE should or shouldn't read!
P.S. I really wish people on SR would stop using 'so gay' as an insult! It is SO BLONDE! ;-)

that is soo gay, isn't reminders what helps people over the grieving process not to cover it all up and forget it ever happened.
