Book Two Blog Post - due Wednesday, 2/23

Hi guys - let's take some time today for you to explore your thoughts on the opening chapters of Book Two.

Choose one of the topics below to explore in a new blog post. Your post should be 2 paragraphs in length and should include clear topic sentence claims, evidence, and commentary.

1) How does Winston's relationship with Julia begin to change his state of mind in the opening chapters of Book Two?

2) What is the significance of The Golden Country -- in Winston's dream and in reality in his encounter with Julia? What does this place symbolize for Winston?

3) Describe Julia's philosophy on life and the Party. How does it perhaps differ from Winston's?

4) Discuss the importance of the room above Mr. Charrington's shop and the coral paperweight as related to Winston's relationship with Julia.
