The moment he awoke was the First time he knew that he didn't murder his mother. He had believed that he Indirectly was responsible for her death until just then. He remembered war and Chaos, rubble in the streets, and always being hungry. When his father had Disappeared, his mother didn't show any outward emotion but her demeanor changed. He remembered that she became spiritless. She moved through the motions of life And duties of child rearing quietly and mechanically. He recalled how selfish He was in his youth, how he actually stole food from his baby sister because His hunger was so overwhelming and continuous. This conversation turned into a Discussion...

Chapter 9
Everyone at the Ministry of Truth
Has been working almost nonstop for the past five days. Winston, overwhelmed
With fatigue, is on his way to the rented room to rest, the rush of work
Finally over. In his hand is a briefcase containing Goldstein’s book, which he
Hasn’t had a chance to open since receiving it six days ago, on the sixth day
Of Hate Week. On the night of that sixth day, just as Londoners’ hatred of
Eurasia was approaching a climax spurred on by parades, songs, films,
Decorations, displays of Oceania’s military power, and the promise of a public
Hanging of two thousand Eurasian war criminals, an announcement was made that
Oceania was not at war with Eurasia but with Eastasia. Winston was at a
Demonstration that night, listening to a grotesque-looking Inner Party orator
Deliver a furious anti-Eurasian speech that stirred the crowd of thousands to a
Wild, hate-filled roar. Then a messenger handed the orator a slip of paper. He
Continued his speech without a pause, but now he condemned Eastasia instead of
Eurasia. The crowd, accepting this immediately, assumed the anti-Eurasian
Posters and banners everywhere were the result of acts of sabotage by agents of
Goldstein and ripped them from the walls. Meanwhile the orator continued his
Speech. After a few minutes, the crowd returned to yelling in rage, only this
Time at a different target. Winston is impressed, looking back, by how the
Orator shifted so seamlessly into directing his speech at Eastasia. At the
Time, however, he was distracted by a man handing him a briefcase, just as
O’Brien had promised, and by the vast amount of work he knew he would have to
Begin.
