The missing one is on the other blog. Oopsies.
I have a student who is obsessed with Winston's obsession with O'Brien. She's convinced that Winston is a closest gay man (and possibly trans). She will love this chapter:
It had happened at last. The expected message had come. All his life, it seemed to him, he had been waiting for this to happen. [...] he became aware that someone larger than himself [...] It was O'Brien. [...] At last they were face to face, and it seemed that his only impulse was to run away. His heart bounded violently. [...] Again Winston's heart stirred painfully. [...] pick it up at my flat [...] "If you ever want to see me, this is where I can be found," was what O'Brien had been saying to him. [...] He knew that sooner or later he would obey O'Brien's summons. [...] Ministry of Love. [...] a foretaste of death
