Chapter 2 / Nineteen Eighty-Four by G. Orwell The first chapter ended when Winston heard a knock on his apartment door thinking that this is Thought Police. It turned out that it was only his neighboor asking for help with a pipe. Thanks to Winston's visit in her flat we can learn more about people presented in the book, especially children. "Nearly all children nowadays were horrible"- thought Winston. The neighboor's kids are part of an organization called the Spies. The name of the organization can tell us a lot about what is its aim. Children love the Party and hate every enemy of it. The Spies indoctrinates children to this level that they are ready to denounce its parents to the Thought Police. The worst for me was that parents are afraid of their own children because they can easily make them hang. The second part of the chapter was about Winston in his apartment. He realize his solitude and hopelessness that his diary may survive for the other generations. The main character decide that he will stay alive as long as possible even thought he recognized himself as a dead man after thoughtcrime. Chapter 2 of the "1984" was a little bit depressing. It deepened my knowledge about society presented, but I hoped that there would happen something more important. ;-)
