1984 Why does Winston hate the girl behind him, and what does her red sash symbolize? Chapter 1 Asked by deidra m #275889 on 10/17/2012 4:55 PM Last updated by jill d #170087 on 10/17/2012 5:14 PM
He hates her because he can't be what she is or have the sash she wears. The girl is chaste and the sash symbolizes chastity.
