chapter 4

这章终于知道啦Winston 的工作，没有想象中那么可怕，但是的确无聊，也很可悲而Winston 最大的乐趣却在于此。Winston's greatest pleasure in life was in his work. Most of it was a tedious routine, but included in it there were also jobs so difficult and intricate that you could lose yourself in them as in the depths of a mathematical problem--delicate pieces of forgery in which you had nothing to guide you except your knowledge of the principles of Ingsoc and your estimate of what the Party wanted you to say. Winston was good at this kind of thing.
