A Powerful Scene -- The Five Ministries

A Powerful Scene -- The Ministry of Love

         The Ministry of Love is the really frightening building. There are no windows in it at all. Most people never go inside(nor within half a kilometer of it), and is impossible to enter except on official business. Then only by penetrating through a maze of barbed-wire entanglements, steel doors, and hidden machine-gun nests. Even the streets leading up to its outer barriers were roamed by gorilla-faced guards in black uniforms, armed with jointed truncheons.

         Compared with other ministries, the Ministry of Love is the only one that the author described of the government building, which is full of darkness mood. The readers can easily feel the power of the party. Though the author does not say about it, the readers still can figure out that if people come closer without the business to due with Miniluv, death will be their only way to go through.
