Julia

Winston works in the Ministry of Truth with two notable individuals- an Inner Party member known as O'Brien and a mysterious girl with dark hair, who later is known as Julia. Julia is a mechanic that fixes the Ministry's printing presses, and because especially women around her age are fanatical supporters of the Party, Winston at first despises Julia, only to be proven wrong...

However, when the two coincidentally bump into one another during work, Julia confidentially puts a note in Winston's pocket, saying "I love you." Julia then meets Winston secretly in outdoor places to avoid the Party's telescreens and begins a secret, sexual love affair for several months. However, when Julia and Winston rent a bedroom above a proletarian store, they are caught by the Thought Police.

Julia is a very carefree person that loves to be free and hates the Party almost as much as Winston, but remains careful to avoid getting caught by the Party. For example, she joins the Junior Anti-Sex League and participates in Community Centre activities to eliminate any suspicion that she is a Thought criminal. However, it turns out that Julia, rather than the social issues Winston worries about, is more concerned with sexual relationships (Which are utterly forbidden between Party Members), had her first relationship with an old Party Member who hung himself later in guilt, and had already done this "Hundreds of times" according to herself. Other than Winston, Julia is the only thought criminal that we know about.
