5, Penguin, 1949 It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.

Winston Smith, his chin nuzzled into his breast in an effort to escape the vile wind, slipped quickly through the glass doors of Victory Mansions, though not quickly enough to prevent a swirl of gritty dust from entering along with him. The hallway smelt of boiled cabbage and old rag mats.

At one end of it a coloured poster, too large for indoor display, had been tacked to the wall.

It depicted simply an enormous face, more than a metre wide: the face of a man of about forty-five, with a heavy black moustache and ruggedly handsome features.

Winston made for the stairs.

It was no use trying the lift.

Even at the best of times it was seldom working, and at present the electric current was cut off during daylight hours.

It was part of the economy drive in preparation for Hate Week.

The flat was seven flights up, and Winston, who was thirty-nine and had a varicose ulcer above his right ankle, went slowly, resting several times on the way.

On each landing, opposite the lift-shaft, the poster with the enormous face gazed from the wall.

It was one of those pictures which are so contrived that the eyes follow you about when you move.

BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, the caption beneath it ran. Thème Didier VAN CAUWELAERT, Un aller simple, Éditions Albin Michel, 1994 À neuf heures du matin, on m’a donné un café, une biscotte et on m’a conduit à l’aéroport. L’attaché humanitaire faisait les cent pas devant la porte des départs, entouré de barrières mobiles et de policiers de l’air qui ordonnaient aux gens de circuler. Dès que j’ai mis le pied sur le trottoir, il m’a tiré par le bras en me disant de me dépêcher, et m’a demandé où étaient mes bagages.

J’ai répondu qu’on avait désossé mon domicile, alors il m’a conseillé d’aller m’équiper à la boutique Rodier.

Je l’ai remercié de son attention, mais j’ai précisé que je n’avais pas d’argent.

Il a dit que tout était couvert par ses frais de mission, et il m’a donné trois mille francs pour que je m’habille dans le genre tous-les-jours, mais vite parce qu’il y avait des problèmes – je sentais qu’avec lui, c’était plutôt fréquent. Dans la cabine d’essayage, j’ai quitté sans regret mon costume blanc de fiançailles qui était un trop mauvais souvenir, tout taché par la prison, et je me suis acheté, en marchandant mais ça n’a rien donné, un très beau prince-de-galles en pur coton, avec la chemise à rayures prune et la cravate assortie.
