1984 Part 2 - Chapter 2

It was a great relief to Winston when the girl arrived in the country at the arranged meeting place. When Winston finally saw her he felt inadequate, she was beautiful and much younger than he was. Everything was happening how Winston had hoped. The girls name was Julia, when she told Winston she enjoyed the act of sex he became very excited.

After, Winston saw Julia as no longer pure love and there act had been a declaration of rebellion. Sex is a form of protest to the Party. The rebellion is similar to the uprise on Manor Farm when the animals took over. Both events are similar to when the Bolsheviks seized power in Russia during the October Revolution phase of the Russian Revolution of 1917.

(+) Good use of comparisons with regards to "Animal Farm" and "Bolshevik Russia."
(+) Strong, clear thesis that supports the post well.
(-) Needs more of an introduction to attract the reader's attention and make them want to keep reading.
(-) Lack of a conclusion leaves the post feeling unfinished.
