The dream sequence talks about when Winston was younger. It explains a little bit about his childhood and how they seemed to be struggling without his father. The author presented imagery as if his family were proles and poor. He described his living state as a war zone with machine gun fire from the distance, enormous queues outside the bakery, and lots of rubble everywhere. His dreamed showed how he and other boys would pick out ribs of cabbage leaves, potato peelings from the streets and other foods. The leaving of his father made his mom’s physical states a lack of energy in every single thing she did. After this Winston had become really greedy. He wouldn’t be pleased with his sister’s amount of food so she would give him part of his sister food. This happened even when they’re struggling to get food and with his sister’s sickness. The impoverish conditions made Winston into an animal. His mom had given him most of a chocolate ration and he ended up stealing his sister’s and running away. After he ran away he was in the street for hours and didn’t know what to do. He came back and family wasn’t there. It took him a little while to get use to it but he did. This shows how much Winston misses his family and needs someone to talk to like Julia. He views that people are selfish now. It’s important to for the book because it shows how the society really doesn’t care about a single person just the community as a whole.
In conclusion, the society takes away a since of love from family and one another. He shares his love with Julia since he didn't have the experience with his mom.
