Part One-I

The story opens with Winston entering his room of the Victory mansion on a cold day. Winston takes out a diary that he had bought from an antique shop and began writing his thoughts down as he accounts his entire day. As he writes, he writes about how cruel the world is now and the story begins to explain the political system of the setting. He remembers the reaction of all the people when they saw all the helpless escapees get shot and how they looked coldly at the image. Winston then writes, multiple times and in bold letters, "DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER" and as he does he realizes he could get shot but doesn't care.
