1984: Part 3 Pages 273-287

The party can control the human mind, but it can not change the stars or even the universe. O'Brien and Winston now argue about eachothers beleifs.

Weeks have passed as Winston goes through torture. Not only is he being tortured physically, but also mentally due to the fact someone is telling him things he does not want to hear. As there talks continue, O'Brien states that everything will be good again with a cure. That cure would kill him, but also releive him from all that's bad. Everyone will be shot.

I would rather be shot than live in a society full of hate and no privacy. Let alone, Winston is being tortured making the experience much more worst. Get it over with and shoot them, and allow them to live in peace up in heaven!

+ Nice conclusions

(+) I like how you put your own personal opinions into your blog, its not just a plot summary!
(+) Nice introduction
(-) Would benefit from some quotes
(-) The body could be a little fuller, its seems sparse as if it need some more support
