Part Two- III

The next morning they make a plan on how to get back to the city without the suspicion of others. The next few weeks they agree on meeting locations where they see each other for small periods of time. When they meet at one of their locations which the old crumbling church they have sex. After intercourse, Julia talks about herself, and her life among the other girls in the hostel. She tells him about her job at the Fiction Department and how all the workers in the pornography section are girls. She explains that this is so because they are still pure and won’t be tuned by what they do. They talk about rebellion against the party and the Brotherhood, which Julia has never heard of. Julia also explains to Winston why that party is against sex. She says that it is because relationships take energy which could instead be used for the benefit of the party. When people are deprived of sex it makes them edgy and more prone to outbursts so then the party gives them an outlet which is the party’s enemies and the worship of Big Brother. Winston talks about his ex-wife and how one time he almost pushed her off a cliff. He thinks that if he had it wouldn’t have made a difference since in this live they are already dead. Julia disagrees and tells him that they are not dead yet.
