My feeling
After I read this I noticed this book is for grown up. However it was fun and interesting. When the book mentioned about that O'brien was a member of Big brother I got surprised and it was very interesting. The mood in this book was sad and dark, but it was fun. I recommend this book.
Theme
I think the theme is the physical torture makes your mind change, and this is important to teenager because when person gets beat up, they listen to people who beat them.
Relating
This book relates to the time during the Soviet Union. The political theory in this place and the philosophy in Soviet time is very similar. They have no freedom, and government controls everything. So I think it is related in to that time.

Setting
The beautiful place in this book was the place was where Winston and Julia had a sex relationship, because it was the place there is no telescreen, peaceful, and it is greenish.The place that was disturbing and memorable was Room101, because before O’brien and Winston meets O’brien sent a letter that lets meet in the bright place and I thought it was a peaceful place but it was Room101 which is the most terrible and horrible torturing place. It was disturbing because it scared me
Statement
“War is peace, Freedom is slavery, Ignorance is strength,” was the most meaningful and significant. This passage explains about this book and story. It was also very attractive to me because it tells what Socialism really thinks and wants to do.
Mood
The mood of this story is sad, dark and limited. The reason it is stricter than Soviet time, and the fact that without having any free is very sad.
