Julia - 1984

I think Julia really adds to the story. Shes so different from Winston, yet they are both against the Party. I think the face that she refuses the party and continues to rebel is actually the way a character should act. Where Winston is very discrete, Julia is very open about her rebellion, which is surprising. The reason i think that's how characters should be in books like this is because it shows major rebellion. I was raised by a hippie so maybe I'm a little bias. Regardless, i think that if all the characters in the book were like Julia, one of two things would happen. Either they would take over the Party, or they would end up like Brave New World and constantly have sex and take drugs all day...
