Chapter Five.

In this chapter, we were introduced to Winston's comrade Syme. Syme helps with writing the newspeak dictionary for the Party. Winston is worried about Syme because he knows that he is too intelligent and will eventually be vaporized. However, we also meet Mr. Parsons. Winston knows that Mr. Parsons will never be vaporized because he has become exactly what the Party wants everyone to be. Mindless. This chapter was very interesting to me because it showed that Winston is much more intelligent than he leads on to people. He knows just by talking to people what their fate will be, and he also knows his own fate.
