I really like the imagery the book gives you allot of show not tell like when O'Brien was telling Winston about the rats he gave great details and it really made you feel what the author was trying to make you feel and its not just one feeling its a mixture of suspense, scared, and horror at the same time. It help you understand the story more because you can feel what the character is feeling. Even though he was being tortured, i didn't like the fact that he was screaming to do it to Julia and not him and all the other stuff he said. Yea i understand hes being tortured but hes a guy and shes a girl, that's just kind of messed up.

The beginning of chapter 8 the i liked how they set the tone by giving you an image of the room and how he was feeling nervous and excited at the same time because he thinks hes free. I like Winston even more when he said he liked to join the secret organization that works against the party. I can conclude that if i was comparing this story to a quest Winston is the night in shining armor.

In the second book, he meets this girl and he ends up hooking up with her but they just met. That is the one of the riskiest thing he could do because for all he knows she could be spy and it is illegal to but it reveals the hypocrisy of the party members. It really annoys me that they think they can do anything they want and tell others they can't do the same thing as them. And i think that pretty gross how he just made love to a girl that got around. They obviously didn't take a health class.

The second chapter is really good because it gives us a issue already. I find it odd that little kids came to the park to see prisoners gt hanged. This place sounds so horrible, the children whine and roar if they don't get to watch the hanging. they even have police to monitor thoughts, this sounds a little too up tight for my comfort and to feel like nothing is yours except a few centimeters inside your skull is just too much for me. Its makes me feel kind of annoyed of the Big Brother Party. And they are evil queen in this quest

The slogan of the party is a really a bold statement and its not just mentions once in the books. This is very surprising to me because as a ruling party i would expect something much different. I disagree with that slogan but its not my book or story so it doesn't really matter. But even today some people have the same theory as the slogan but i don't think to this extent. From what it sounds like the party has allot of power and has allot of control over the civilian lives. It just sounds like a nightmare. I mean they aren't even allowed to have free thoughts? and if you do its a "Thought crime" i just can't imagine living in a society like this one

Different cultures clash all the time even in the United States, especially when Foreigners come from a different culture and have to quickly adapt the the customs of the U.S. So in the book when it talks about a man killing his wife because of his beliefs its not a new thing. Even on the News today there are stories like that and there are also many fights because different cultures have different beliefs and sometimes they are total opposite and it starts a disagreement and possibly a fight. I can relate to this because my parents customs are different to the customs i learn and pick up and school and sometimes they start they can agree and adapt and other times they argue about it with me

Throughout the book of What is the what, Valentino tells us the his past experiences trying to escape and avoid the violence and i think it symbolizes whats happening around the world today. I think people out there in like the Middle East, Burma and other countries that are not in peace can relate to his stories. The author even gives you specific details of what kind of guns the soldiers are carrying instead of just saying guns and it just shows that he really has a strong feeling about this topic and it can transfer to the reader and i like that about the book. You can kinda like feel the emotions the authors going through so its not just a book or story.
