Book Three Chapter 1

Chapter one of Book Three is an alright chapter. In a nutshell... Winston sits in a bright, bare cell in which the lights are always on. He had been transferred there from a holding cell in which a huge prole woman who shares the last name Smith wonders if she is Winston's mother. In  his solitary cell, Winston starts to lose it and he imagines being beaten down by the guards.

Also in this chapter, Winston hopes that the Brotherhood will send him a razor blade so that he can commit suicide. After Winston sees O'Brien, O'Brien reveals himself to be a part of the Ministry. After Winston realizes this, a guard smashes his elbow and he then thinks that there is no one who could become a hero in the face of physical pain because it is too much to endure.
