1984 by George Orwell, Part three, Chapter 6

Part three, Chapter 6

The Chestnut Tree was almost empty. A ray of sunlight slanting through a window fell on dusty table-tops. It was the lonely hour of fifteen. A tinny music trickled from the

telescreens.

Winston sat in his usual corner, gazing into an empty glass. Now and again he glanced up at a vast face which eyed him from the opposite wall. BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, the caption said. Unbidden, a waiter came and filled his glass up with Victory Gin, shaking into it a few drops from another bottle with a quill through the cork. It was saccharine flavoured with cloves, the speciality of the cafe.

Winston was listening to the telescreen. At present only music was coming out of it, but there was a possibility that at any moment there might be a special bulletin from the Ministry of Peace. The news from the African front was disquieting in the extreme. On and off he had been worrying about it all day. A Eurasian army (Oceania was at war with Eurasia: Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia) was moving southward at terrifying speed. The mid-day bulletin had not mentioned any definite area, but it was probable that already the mouth of the Congo was a battlefield. Brazzaville and Leopoldville were in danger. One did not have to look at the map to see what it meant. It was not merely a question of losing Central Africa: for the first time in the whole war, the territory of Oceania itself was menaced.

A violent emotion, not fear exactly but a sort of

undifferentiated excitement, flared up in him, then faded again. He stopped thinking about the war. In these days he could never fix his mind on any one subject for more than a few moments at a time. He picked up his glass and drained it at a gulp. As always, the gin made him shudder and even retch slightly. The stuff was horrible. The cloves and saccharine, themselves disgusting enough in their sickly way, could not disguise the flat oily smell; and what was worst of all was that the smell of gin, which dwelt with him night and day, was inextricably mixed up in his mind with the smell of those ——

He never named them, even in his thoughts, and so far as it was possible he never visualized them. They were something that he was half-aware of, hovering close to his face, a smell that clung to his nostrils. As the gin rose in him he belched through purple lips. He had grown fatter since they released him, and had regained his old colour — indeed, more than regained it. His features had thickened, the skin on nose and cheekbones was coarsely red, even the bald scalp was too deep a pink. A waiter, again unbidden, brought the chessboard and the current issue of ‘The Times', with the page turned down at the chess problem. Then, seeing that Winston's glass was empty, he brought the gin bottle and filled it. There was no need to give orders. They knew his habits. The chessboard was always waiting for him, his corner table was always reserved; even when the place was full he had it to himself, since nobody cared to be seen sitting too close to him. He never even bothered to count his drinks. At irregular intervals they presented him with a dirty slip of paper which they said was the bill, but he had the impression that they always undercharged him. It would have made no difference if it had been the other way about. He had always plenty of money nowadays. He even had a job, a sinecure,

more highly-paid than his old job had been.

The music from the telescreen stopped and a voice took over. Winston raised his head to listen. No bulletins from the front, however. It was merely a brief announcement from the Ministry of Plenty. In the preceding quarter, it appeared, the Tenth Three-Year Plan's quota for bootlaces had been overfulfilled by q8 per cent.

He examined the chess problem and set out the pieces. It was a tricky ending, involving a couple of knights. ‘White to play and mate in two moves.' Winston looked up at the portrait of Big Brother. White always mates, he thought with a sort of cloudy mysticism. Always, without exception, it is so arranged. In no chess problem since the beginning of the world has black ever won. Did it not symbolize the eternal, unvarying triumph of Good over Evil? The huge face gazed back at him, full of calm power. White always mates.

The voice from the telescreen paused and added in a different and much graver tone: ‘You are warned to stand by for an important announcement at fifteen-thirty. Fifteen-thirty! This is news of the highest importance. Take care not to miss it. Fifteen- thirty!' The tinkling music struck up again.

Winston's heart stirred. That was the bulletin from the front; instinct told him that it was bad news that was coming. All day, with little spurts of excitement, the thought of a smashing defeat in Africa had been in and out of his mind. He seemed actually to see the Eurasian army swarming across the never-broken frontier and pouring down into the tip of Africa like a column of ants. Why had it not been possible to outflank them in some way? The outline of the West African coast stood out vividly in his mind. He picked up the white knight and moved it across the board. THERE was the proper spot. Even while he saw the black horde racing southward he saw another force, mysteriously assembled, suddenly planted in their rear, cutting their communications by land and sea. He felt that by willing it he was bringing that other force into existence. But it was necessary to act quickly. If they could get control of the whole of Africa, if they had airfields and submarine bases at the Cape, it would cut Oceania in two. It might mean anything: defeat, breakdown, the redivision of the world, the destruction of the Party! He drew a deep breath. An extraordinary medley of feeling — but it was not a medley, exactly; rather it was successive layers of feeling, in which one could not say which layer was undermost — struggled inside him.

The spasm passed. He put the white knight back in its place, but for the moment he could not settle down to serious study of the chess problem. His thoughts wandered again. Almost unconsciously he traced with his finger in the dust on the table:

2+2=5

‘They can't get inside you,' she had said. But they could get inside you. ‘What happens to you here is FOR EVER,' O'Brien had said. That was a true word. There were things, your own acts, from which you could never recover. Something was killed in your breast: burnt out, cauterized out.

He had seen her; he had even spoken to her. There was no danger in it. He knew as though instinctively that they now took almost no interest in his doings. He could have arranged to meet her a second time if either of them had wanted to. Actually it was by chance that they had met. It was in the Park, on a vile, biting day in March, when the earth was like iron and all the grass seemed dead and there was not a bud anywhere except a few crocuses which had pushed themselves up to be dismembered by the wind. He was hurrying along with frozen hands and watering eyes when he saw her not ten metres away from him. It struck him at once that she had changed in some ill-defined way. They almost passed one another without a sign, then he turned and followed her, not very eagerly. He knew that there was no danger, nobody would take any interest in him. She did not speak. She walked obliquely away across the grass as though trying to get rid of him, then seemed to resign herself to having him at her side. Presently they were in among a clump of ragged leafless shrubs, useless either for concealment or as protection from the wind. They halted. It was vilely cold. The wind whistled through the twigs and fretted the occasional, dirty-looking crocuses. He put his arm round her waist.

There was no telescreen, but there must be hidden microphones: besides, they could be seen. It did not matter, nothing mattered. They could have lain down on the ground and done THAT if they had wanted to. His flesh froze with horror at the thought of it. She made no response whatever to the clasp of his arm; she did not even try to disengage herself. He knew now what had changed in her. Her face was sallower, and there was a long scar, partly hidden by the hair, across her forehead and temple; but that was not the change. It was that her waist had grown thicker, and, in a surprising way, had stiffened. He remembered how once, after the explosion of a rocket bomb, he had helped to drag a corpse out of some ruins, and had been astonished not only by the incredible weight of the thing, but by its rigidity and awkwardness to handle, which made it seem more like stone than flesh. Her body felt like that. It occurred to him that the texture of her skin would be quite different from what it had once been.

He did not attempt to kiss her, nor did they speak. As they walked back across the grass, she looked directly at him for the first time. It was only a momentary glance, full of contempt and dislike. He wondered whether it was a dislike that came purely out of the past or whether it was inspired also by his bloated face and the water that the wind kept squeezing from his eyes. They sat down on two iron chairs, side by side but not too close together. He saw that she was about to speak. She moved her clumsy shoe a few centimetres and deliberately crushed a twig. Her feet seemed to have grown broader, he noticed.

‘I betrayed you,' she said baldly. ‘I betrayed you,' he said.

She gave him another quick look of dislike.

‘Sometimes,' she said, ‘they threaten you with something something you can't stand up to, can't even think about. And then you say, “Don't do it to me, do it to somebody else, do it to so-and- so.” And perhaps you might pretend, afterwards, that it was only a trick and that you just said it to make them stop and didn't really mean it. But that isn't true. At the time when it happens you do mean it. You think there's no other way of saving yourself, and you're quite ready to save yourself that way. You WANT it to happen to the other person. You don't give a damn what they suffer. All you care about is yourself.'

‘All you care about is yourself,' he echoed.

‘And after that, you don't feel the same towards the other person any longer.'

‘No,' he said, ‘you don't feel the same.'

There did not seem to be anything more to say. The wind plastered their thin overalls against their bodies. Almost at once it became embarrassing to sit there in silence: besides, it was too cold to keep still. She said something about catching her Tube and stood up to go.

‘We must meet again,' he said.

‘Yes,' she said, ‘we must meet again.'

He followed irresolutely for a little distance, half a pace behind her. They did not speak again. She did not actually try to shake him off, but walked at just such a speed as to prevent his keeping abreast of her. He had made up his mind that he would accompany her as far as the Tube station, but suddenly this process of trailing along in the cold seemed pointless and unbearable. He was overwhelmed by a desire not so much to get away from Julia as to get back to the Chestnut Tree Cafe, which had never seemed so attractive as at this moment. He had a nostalgic vision of his corner table, with the newspaper and the chessboard and the ever-flowing gin. Above all, it would be warm in there. The next moment, not altogether by accident, he allowed himself to become separated from her by a small knot of people. He made a half-hearted attempt to catch up, then slowed down, turned, and made off in the opposite direction. When he had gone fifty metres he looked back. The street was not crowded, but already he could not distinguish her. Any one of a dozen hurrying figures might have been hers. Perhaps her thickened, stiffened body was no longer recognizable from behind.

‘At the time when it happens,' she had said, ‘you do mean it.' He had meant it. He had not merely said it, he had wished it. He had wished that she and not he should be delivered over to the —— Something changed in the music that trickled from the telescreen. A cracked and jeering note, a yellow note, came into it.

And then — perhaps it was not happening, perhaps it was only a memory taking on the semblance of sound — a voice was singing:

‘Under the spreading chestnut tree

I sold you and you sold me ——'

The tears welled up in his eyes. A passing waiter noticed that his glass was empty and came back with the gin bottle.

He took up his glass and sniffed at it. The stuff grew not less but more horrible with every mouthful he drank. But it had become the element he swam in. It was his life, his death, and his resurrection. It was gin that sank him into stupor every night, and gin that revived him every morning. When he woke, seldom before eleven hundred, with gummed-up eyelids and fiery mouth and a back that seemed to be broken, it would have been impossible even to rise from the horizontal if it had not been for the bottle and teacup placed beside the bed overnight. Through the midday hours he sat with glazed face, the bottle handy, listening to the telescreen. From fifteen to closing-time he was a fixture in the Chestnut Tree. No one cared what he did any longer, no whistle woke him, no telescreen admonished him. Occasionally, perhaps twice a week, he went to a dusty, forgotten-looking office in the Ministry of Truth and did a little work, or what was called work. He had been appointed to a sub-committee of a sub-committee which had sprouted from one of the innumerable committees dealing with minor difficulties that arose in the compilation of the Eleventh Edition of the Newspeak Dictionary. They were engaged in producing something called an Interim Report, but what it was that they were reporting on he had never definitely found out. It was something to do with the question of whether commas should be placed inside brackets, or outside. There were four others on the committee, all of them persons similar to himself. There were days when they assembled and then promptly dispersed again, frankly admitting to one another that there was not really anything to be done. But there were other days when they settled down to their work almost eagerly, making a tremendous show of entering up their minutes and drafting long memoranda which were never finished — when the argument as to what they were supposedly arguing about grew extraordinarily involved and abstruse, with subtle haggling over definitions, enormous digressions, quarrels — threats, even, to appeal to higher authority. And then suddenly the life would go out of them and they would sit round the table looking at one another with extinct eyes, like ghosts fading at cock- crow.

The telescreen was silent for a moment. Winston raised his head again. The bulletin! But no, they were merely changing the music. He had the map of Africa behind his eyelids. The movement of the armies was a diagram: a black arrow tearing vertically southward, and a white arrow horizontally eastward, across the tail of the first. As though for reassurance he looked up at the imperturbable face in the portrait. Was it conceivable that the second arrow did not even exist?

His interest flagged again. He drank another mouthful of gin, picked up the white knight and made a tentative move. Check. But it was evidently not the right move, because ——

Uncalled, a memory floated into his mind. He saw a candle-lit room with a vast white-counterpaned bed, and himself, a boy of nine or ten, sitting on the floor, shaking a dice-box, and laughing excitedly. His mother was sitting opposite him and also laughing.

It must have been about a month before she disappeared. It was a moment of reconciliation, when the nagging hunger in his belly was forgotten and his earlier affection for her had temporarily revived. He remembered the day well, a pelting, drenching day when the water streamed down the window-pane and the light indoors was too dull to read by. The boredom of the two children in the dark, cramped bedroom became unbearable. Winston whined and grizzled, made futile demands for food, fretted about the room pulling everything out of place and kicking the wainscoting until the neighbours banged on the wall, while the younger child wailed intermittently. In the end his mother said, ‘Now be good, and I'll buy you a toy. A lovely toy — you'll love it'; and then she had gone out in the rain, to a little general shop which was still sporadically open nearby, and came back with a cardboard box containing an outfit of Snakes and Ladders. He could still remember the smell of the damp cardboard. It was a miserable outfit. The board was cracked and the tiny wooden dice were so ill-cut that they would hardly lie on their sides. Winston looked at the thing sulkily and without interest. But then his mother lit a piece of candle and they sat down on the floor to play. Soon he was wildly excited and shouting with laughter as the tiddly-winks climbed hopefully up the ladders and then came slithering down the snakes again, almost to the starting-point. They played eight games, winning four each. His tiny sister, too young to understand what the game was about, had sat propped up against a bolster, laughing because the others were laughing. For a whole afternoon they had all been happy together, as in his earlier childhood.

He pushed the picture out of his mind. It was a false memory. He was troubled by false memories occasionally. They did not matter so long as one knew them for what they were. Some things had happened, others had not happened. He turned back to the chessboard and picked up the white knight again. Almost in the same instant it dropped on to the board with a clatter. He had started as though a pin had run into him.

A shrill trumpet-call had pierced the air. It was the bulletin! Victory! It always meant victory when a trumpet-call preceded the news. A sort of electric drill ran through the cafe. Even the waiters had started and pricked up their ears.

The trumpet-call had let loose an enormous volume of noise. Already an excited voice was gabbling from the telescreen, but even as it started it was almost drowned by a roar of cheering from outside. The news had run round the streets like magic. He could hear just enough of what was issuing from the telescreen to realize that it had all happened, as he had foreseen; a vast seaborne armada had secretly assembled a sudden blow in the enemy's rear, the white arrow tearing across the tail of the black. Fragments of triumphant phrases pushed themselves through the din: ‘Vast strategic manoeuvre — perfect co-ordination — utter rout — half a million prisoners — complete demoralization — control of the whole of Africa — bring the war within measurable distance of its end — victory — greatest victory in human history — victory, victory, victory!'

Under the table Winston's feet made convulsive movements. He had not stirred from his seat, but in his mind he was running, swiftly running, he was with the crowds outside, cheering himself deaf. He looked up again at the portrait of Big Brother. The colossus that bestrode the world! The rock against which the hordes of Asia dashed themselves in vain! He thought how ten minutes ago — yes, only ten minutes — there had still been equivocation in his heart as he wondered whether the news from the front would be of victory or defeat. Ah, it was more than a Eurasian army that had perished! Much had changed in him since that first day in the Ministry of Love, but the final, indispensable, healing change had never happened, until this moment.

The voice from the telescreen was still pouring forth its tale of prisoners and booty and slaughter, but the shouting outside had died down a little. The waiters were turning back to their work. One of them approached with the gin bottle. Winston, sitting in a blissful dream, paid no attention as his glass was filled up. He was not running or cheering any longer. He was back in the Ministry of Love, with everything forgiven, his soul white as snow. He was in the public dock, confessing everything, implicating everybody. He was walking down the white-tiled corridor, with the feeling of walking in sunlight, and an armed guard at his back. The long- hoped-for bullet was entering his brain.

He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self- willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.

The Chestnut Tree was almost empty. Каштан був майже порожній. A ray of sunlight slanting through a window fell on dusty table-tops. Un rayo de sol que entraba oblicuamente a través de una ventana cayó sobre las mesas polvorientas. It was the lonely hour of fifteen. Era la hora solitaria de las quince. Це була самотня година п'ятнадцять. A tinny music trickled from the Una música de hojalata se filtraba desde el З нього лилася тиха музика

telescreens.

Winston sat in his usual corner, gazing into an empty glass. Now and again he glanced up at a vast face which eyed him from the opposite wall. De vez en cuando miraba un rostro enorme que lo miraba desde la pared opuesta. BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, the caption said. HERMANO MAYOR TE ESTÁ MIRANDO, decía el pie de foto. Unbidden, a waiter came and filled his glass up with Victory Gin, shaking into it a few drops from another bottle with a quill through the cork. |||||||||||||||||||||||quill|||cork 不意に|||||||||||||||||||||||羽ペン||| nieproszony|||||||||||||||||||||||pióro||| Без запрошення підійшов офіціант і наповнив його келих джином «Вікторі», струшивши туди кілька крапель з іншої пляшки пером через пробку.

Winston was listening to the telescreen.

The mid-day bulletin had not mentioned any definite area, but it was probable that already the mouth of the Congo was a battlefield. El boletín del mediodía no había mencionado ninguna zona definida, pero era probable que ya la desembocadura del Congo fuera un campo de batalla.

A violent emotion, not fear exactly but a sort of

undifferentiated excitement, flared up in him, then faded again. ||燃え上がった|||||| excitación indiferenciada, estalló en él, luego se desvaneció de nuevo. He stopped thinking about the war. In these days he could never fix his mind on any one subject for more than a few moments at a time. En estos días, nunca podría concentrar su mente en un tema por más de unos momentos a la vez. He picked up his glass and drained it at a gulp. ||||||||||jednym haustem Cogió su vaso y lo apuró de un trago. Він підняв свою склянку й ковтком випив її.

The stuff was horrible. Las cosas eran horribles. Речі були жахливі.

He never named them, even in his thoughts, and so far as it was possible he never visualized them. Nunca los nombró, ni siquiera en sus pensamientos, y en la medida de lo posible, nunca los visualizó. They were something that he was half-aware of, hovering close to his face, a smell that clung to his nostrils. |||||||||unosząc się||||||||||| As the gin rose in him he belched through purple lips. |||||||||purpurowe| Cuando la ginebra subió dentro de él, eructó a través de los labios morados.

Відтоді, як його звільнили, він погладшав і набув колишнього кольору — навіть більше, ніж набув. His features had thickened, the skin on nose and cheekbones was coarsely red, even the bald scalp was too deep a pink. |||厚くなった||||||||粗く|||||||||| |||zgrubiały|||||||||||||||||| Sus rasgos se habían engrosado, la piel de la nariz y los pómulos estaba toscamente enrojecida, incluso el cuero cabelludo calvo era de un rosa demasiado intenso.

The chessboard was always waiting for him, his corner table was always reserved; even when the place was full he had it to himself, since nobody cared to be seen sitting too close to him.

The music from the telescreen stopped and a voice took over. La música de la telepantalla se detuvo y una voz se hizo cargo. Muzyka z teleskrinera ustała i przejęty został głos. Winston raised his head to listen. Winston levantó la cabeza para escuchar. Winston uniósł głowę, aby posłuchać. No bulletins from the front, however. |前線からの報告|||| |komunikaty|||| Sin embargo, no hay boletines del frente. It was merely a brief announcement from the Ministry of Plenty.

He examined the chess problem and set out the pieces. Examinó el problema del ajedrez y dispuso las piezas. Zbadał problem szachowy i ustawił figury. Він розглянув шахову задачу і розставив фігури. It was a tricky ending, involving a couple of knights. To był skomplikowany koniec, zaangażowany w kilka rycerzy. Це був складний кінець, за участю пари лицарів. ‘White to play and mate in two moves.' ‘Białe na ruch i mat w dwóch posunięciach.' Winston looked up at the portrait of Big Brother. Winston spojrzał w górę na portret Wielkiego Brata. White always mates, he thought with a sort of cloudy mysticism. 白は常に|||||||||| Always, without exception, it is so arranged. ||例外|||| Siempre, sin excepción, así se arregla.

The huge face gazed back at him, full of calm power. El enorme rostro le devolvió la mirada, lleno de calma poder. White always mates. Biały zawsze matuje.

The voice from the telescreen paused and added in a different and much graver tone: ‘You are warned to stand by for  an important announcement at fifteen-thirty. |||||||||||||もっと重々しい|||||||||||||| |||||||||||||poważniejszym|||||||||||||| Głos z teleskopyu przerwał i dodał w innym, znacznie poważniejszym tonie: „Ostrzega się, aby przygotować się na ważne ogłoszenie o piętnastej trzydzieści.

This  is news of the highest importance. Take care not to miss it. Tenga cuidado de no perdérselo. Fifteen- thirty!' The tinkling music struck up again.

Winston's heart stirred. That was the bulletin from the front; instinct told him that it was bad news that was coming. All day, with little spurts of excitement, the thought of a smashing defeat in Africa had been in and out of his mind. ||||spurts|||||||||||||||||| He seemed actually to see the Eurasian army swarming across the never-broken frontier and pouring down into the tip of Africa like a column of ants. Why had it not been possible to outflank them in some way? |||||||側面を突く|||| The outline of the West African coast stood out vividly in his mind. El contorno de la costa de África Occidental se destacó vívidamente en su mente. He picked up the white knight and moved it across the board. THERE was the proper spot. Allí estaba el lugar adecuado. ТУТ було належне місце. Even while he saw the black horde racing southward he saw another force, mysteriously assembled, suddenly planted in their rear, cutting their communications by land and sea. ||||||黒い大群|||||||||||||||||||| Incluso mientras veía la horda negra corriendo hacia el sur, vio otra fuerza, misteriosamente reunida, plantada repentinamente en su retaguardia, cortando sus comunicaciones por tierra y mar. Навіть коли він бачив чорну орду, яка мчала на південь, він бачив іншу силу, таємничим чином зібрану, раптово висаджену в їхній тил, перерізаючи їхні комунікації на суші та на морі. He felt that by willing it he was bringing that other force into existence. Sintió que al desearlo estaba dando existencia a esa otra fuerza. But it was necessary to act quickly. If they could get control of the whole of Africa, if they had airfields and submarine bases at the Cape, it would cut Oceania in two. |||||||||||||飛行場|||||||||||| Si pudieran hacerse con el control de toda África, si tuvieran aeródromos y bases de submarinos en el Cabo, cortarían Oceanía en dos. It might mean anything: defeat, breakdown, the redivision of the world, the destruction of the Party! |||||||再分割|||||||| |||||załamanie|||||||||| Puede significar cualquier cosa: ¡derrota, ruptura, la redivisión del mundo, la destrucción del Partido! He drew a deep breath. Respiró hondo. An extraordinary medley of feeling — but it was not a medley, exactly; rather it was successive layers of feeling, in which one could not say which layer was undermost — struggled inside him. ||mixture||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||最下層の||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||najniższa||| Una mezcla extraordinaria de sentimientos, pero no era una mezcla exactamente; más bien eran capas sucesivas de sentimiento, en las que uno no podía decir qué capa estaba más abajo, luchaba dentro de él. Niezwykła mieszanka uczuć — ale to nie była dokładnie mieszanka; raczej były to kolejne warstwy uczuć, w których nie można było powiedzieć, która warstwa była najniżej — walczyły wewnątrz niego.

The spasm passed. Spazm minął. He put the white knight back in its place, but for the moment he could not settle down to serious study of the chess problem. Włożył białego konia z powrotem na swoje miejsce, ale w tej chwili nie mógł się skupić na poważnym badaniu problemu szachowego. His thoughts wandered again. Almost unconsciously he traced with his finger in the dust on the table:

2+2=5

‘They can't get inside you,' she had said. «No pueden entrar en ti», había dicho. But they could get inside you. Але вони можуть проникнути всередину вас. ‘What happens to you here is FOR EVER,' O'Brien had said. «Те, що з тобою тут станеться, НАЗАВЖДИ», — сказав О'Браєн. That was a true word. Esa fue una palabra verdadera. There were things, your own acts, from which you could never recover. Something was killed in your breast: burnt out, cauterized out. ||||||||cauterized| ||||||焼き尽くされた||焼き切られた| ||||||||skauteryzowane| Coś zostało zabite w twojej piersi: wypalone, wykauteryzowane.

He had seen her; he had even spoken to her. Widział ją; nawet rozmawiał z nią. There was no danger in it. Nie było w tym żadnego niebezpieczeństwa. He knew as though instinctively that they now took almost no interest in his doings. Sabía, como instintivamente, que ahora casi no se interesaban por sus actos. He could have arranged to meet her a second time if either of them had wanted to. Podría haber acordado reunirse con ella por segunda vez si alguno de los dos hubiera querido. Actually it was by chance that they had met. En realidad, fue por casualidad que se conocieron. It was in the Park, on a vile, biting day in March, when the earth was like iron and all the grass seemed dead and there was not a bud anywhere except a few crocuses which had pushed themselves up to be dismembered by the wind. ||||||||身を切る||||||||||||||||||||||||||クロッカス||||||||||| |||||||okropny|||||||||||||||||||||||||||krokusy||||||||||| Fue en el parque, en un día vil y mordaz de marzo, cuando la tierra era como el hierro y toda la hierba parecía muerta y no había ni un solo capullo en ninguna parte excepto unos azafranes que se habían levantado para ser desmembrados por el viento. He was hurrying along with frozen hands and watering eyes when he saw her not ten metres away from him. It struck him at once that she had changed in some ill-defined way. They almost passed one another without a sign, then he turned and followed her, not very eagerly. ||||||||||||||||あまり熱心に He knew that there was no danger, nobody would take any interest in him. She did not speak. She walked obliquely away across the grass as though trying to get rid of him, then seemed to resign herself to having him at her side. Odeszła ukośnie po trawie, jakby próbując się go pozbyć, a potem wydawało się, że pogodziła się z tym, że ma go u boku. Presently they were in among a clump of ragged leafless shrubs, useless either for concealment or as protection from the wind. |||||||||葉のない|||||隠れること|||||| ||||||||||krzewy|||||||||| Wkrótce znaleźli się wśród kępy poszarpanych, bezlistnych krzewów, bezużytecznych ani do ukrycia, ani jako osłona przed wiatrem. They halted. Ellos se detuvieron. Zatrzymali się. It was vilely cold. ||ひどく| The wind whistled through the twigs and fretted the occasional, dirty-looking crocuses. El viento silbaba a través de las ramitas y agitaba los ocasionales azafranes de aspecto sucio. He put his arm round her waist.

There was no telescreen, but there must be hidden microphones: besides, they could be seen. No había telepantalla, pero debía haber micrófonos ocultos: además, se podían ver. It did not matter, nothing mattered. No importaba, nada importaba. They could have lain down on the ground and done THAT if they had wanted to. Вони могли б лягти на землю і зробити ЦЕ, якби хотіли. His flesh froze with horror at the thought of it. Su carne se congeló de horror al pensarlo. She made no response whatever to the clasp of his arm; she did not even try to disengage herself. |||||||||||||||||odłączyć się| He knew now what had changed in her. Her face was sallower, and there was a long scar, partly hidden by the hair, across her forehead and temple; but that was not the change. |||青白い|||||||||||||||||||||| |||||||||||||||||||skroń|||||| Jej twarz była bledsza, a na czole i skroni widniała długa blizna, częściowo ukryta przez włosy; ale to nie była ta zmiana. It was that her waist had grown thicker, and, in a surprising way, had stiffened. ||||腰の周り|||||||||| To, co się zmieniło, to to, że jej talia stała się grubsza, a w zaskakujący sposób, sztywniejsza. He remembered how once, after the explosion of a rocket bomb, he had helped to drag a corpse out of some ruins, and had been astonished not only by the incredible weight of the thing, but by its rigidity and awkwardness to handle, which made it seem more like stone than flesh. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||niesamowity||||||||||niezdarność||||||||||| Pamiętał, jak kiedyś, po wybuchu rakiety, pomógł wyciągnąć zwłoki z ruin i zdziwił się nie tylko niesamowitą wagą tego ciała, ale również jego sztywnością i niezgrabnością w obróbce, co sprawiało, że bardziej przypominało kamień niż ciało. Her body felt like that. It occurred to him that the texture of her skin would be quite different from what it had once been. Zdał sobie sprawę, że tekstura jej skóry będzie zupełnie inna niż to, co kiedyś było.

He did not attempt to kiss her, nor did they speak. |||試みる||||||| No intentó besarla ni hablaron. Nie próbował jej całować, ani nie rozmawiali. As they walked back across the grass, she looked directly at him for the first time. Mientras caminaban por la hierba, ella lo miró directamente por primera vez. Kiedy szli z powrotem przez trawę, po raz pierwszy spojrzała na niego prosto w oczy. It was only a momentary glance, full of contempt and dislike. To było tylko chwilowe spojrzenie, pełne pogardy i niechęci. He wondered whether it was a dislike that came purely out of the past or whether it was inspired also by his bloated face and the water that the wind kept squeezing from his eyes. ||||||||||||||||||||||opuchnięta|||||||||wyciskając||| Se preguntó si era un disgusto que venía puramente del pasado o si estaba inspirado también por su rostro hinchado y el agua que el viento seguía exprimiendo de sus ojos. Zastanawiał się, czy to niechęć wynikała wyłącznie z przeszłości, czy też była inspirowana jego opuchniętą twarzą i wodą, którą wiatr nieustannie wyciskał z jego oczu. Він думав, чи це була неприязнь, яка виникла виключно з минулого, чи це також було навіяно його опухлим обличчям і водою, яку вітер постійно видавлював з його очей. They sat down on two iron chairs, side by side but not too close together. Usiedli na dwóch żelaznych krzesłach, obok siebie, ale nie zbyt blisko siebie. He saw that she was about to speak. Zobaczył, że zamierza mówić. She moved her clumsy shoe a few centimetres and deliberately crushed a twig. ||||靴|||||||| |||niezdarnym||||||||| Przesunęła swojego niezgrabnego buta o kilka centymetrów i celowo zmiażdżyła gałązkę. Her feet seemed to have grown broader, he noticed. Zauważył, że jej stopy wydają się szersze. Він помітив, що її стопи, здавалося, стали ширшими.

‘I betrayed you,' she said baldly. |||||率直に |||||bez ogródek ‚Zdradziłam cię’ – powiedziała otwarcie. ‘I betrayed you,' he said.

She gave him another quick look of dislike.

‘Sometimes,' she said, ‘they threaten you with something something you can't stand up to, can't even think about. ||||grożą||||||||||||| And then you say, “Don't do it to me, do it to somebody else, do it to so-and- so.” And perhaps you might pretend, afterwards, that it was only a trick and that you just said it to make them stop and didn't really mean it. Y luego dices: "No me lo hagas a mí, hazlo a otra persona, hazlo a fulano de tal". Y tal vez puedas fingir, después, que fue solo un truco y que lo dijiste para que se detuvieran y no lo dijiste en serio. A potem mówisz: „Nie rób tego mnie, zrób to komuś innemu, zrób to temu i temu.” I być może po tym udajesz, że to był tylko żart i że powiedziałeś to tylko po to, aby przestali i naprawdę tego nie miałeś na myśli. But that isn't true. Ale to nieprawda. At the time when it happens you do mean it. En el momento en que sucede, lo dices en serio. W chwili, gdy się to dzieje, masz na myśli. You think there's no other way of saving yourself, and you're quite ready to save yourself that way. You WANT it to happen to the other person. Chcesz, aby to stało się drugiej osobie. You don't give a damn what they suffer. Te importa un carajo lo que sufran. Nie obchodzi cię, co cierpią. Вам наплювати, що вони страждають. All you care about is yourself.' Todo lo que te importa es tú mismo '. Tylko o siebie się martwisz.

‘All you care about is yourself,' he echoed. ‘Tylko o siebie się martwisz,' powtórzył.

‘And after that, you don't feel the same towards the other person any longer.' ‘A po tym, już nie czujesz tego samego względem drugiej osoby.' «І після цього ви більше не відчуваєте того самого до іншої людини».

‘No,' he said, ‘you don't feel the same.' ‘Nie,' powiedział, ‘nie czujesz tego samego.'

There did not seem to be anything more to say. Nie wydawało się, aby było cokolwiek więcej do powiedzenia. The wind plastered their thin overalls against their bodies. El viento aplastaba sus delgados overoles contra sus cuerpos. Wiatr przyklejał ich cienkie kombinezony do ciał. Almost at once it became embarrassing to sit there in silence: besides, it was too cold to keep still. Prawie natychmiast zaszła sytuacja, w której zaczęło być niezręcznie siedzieć tam w milczeniu: poza tym było za zimno, aby stać w miejscu. She said something about catching her Tube and stood up to go. Dijo algo sobre coger su tubo y se puso de pie para irse. Ona powiedziała coś o złapaniu metra i wstała, żeby iść. Вона сказала щось про те, щоб зловити свою трубку, і підвелася, щоб йти.

‘We must meet again,' he said. ‚Musimy się spotkać ponownie,' powiedział.

‘Yes,' she said, ‘we must meet again.' ‚Tak,' powiedziała, ‚musimy się spotkać ponownie.'

He followed irresolutely for a little distance, half a pace behind her. ||ためらいがちに||||||||| ||niepewnie||||||||| La siguió con indecisión durante una pequeña distancia, medio paso detrás de ella. Szedł niezdecydowanie przez krótką chwilę, pół kroku za nią. They did not speak again. Już nie rozmawiali. She did not actually try to shake him off, but walked at just such a speed as to prevent his keeping abreast of her. ||||||振り払う||||||||||||||||| En realidad, no trató de deshacerse de él, sino que caminó a una velocidad tal que impidió que él se mantuviera al tanto de ella. Nie próbowała go naprawdę zrzucić, ale szła z taką prędkością, aby uniemożliwić mu nadążenie za nią. Насправді вона не намагалася відкинути його, а йшла з такою швидкістю, щоб він не відставав від неї. He had made up his mind that he would accompany her as far as the Tube station, but suddenly this process of trailing along in the cold seemed pointless and unbearable. ||||||||||||||||||||||ついて行く|||||||| |||||||||towarzyszyć||||||||||||||||||||| Había decidido que la acompañaría hasta la estación de metro, pero de repente este proceso de arrastrarse en el frío parecía inútil e insoportable. Postanowił, że towarzyszy jej aż do stacji metra, ale nagle ten proces podążania za nią w zimnie wydawał się bezsensowny i nie do zniesienia. Він вирішив супроводжувати її аж до станції метро, але раптом це волочіння на морозі здавалося безглуздим і нестерпним. He was overwhelmed by a desire not so much to get away from Julia as to get back to the Chestnut Tree Cafe, which had never seemed so attractive as at this moment. Lo abrumaba un deseo no tanto de alejarse de Julia como de volver al café Chestnut Tree, que nunca le había parecido tan atractivo como en ese momento. Ogarnęło go pragnienie nie tyle ucieczki od Julii, co powrotu do Kawiarni pod Kasztanem, która w tym momencie nigdy nie wydawała się tak atrakcyjna. Його охопило бажання не стільки втекти від Джулії, скільки повернутися до кафе «Каштан», яке ніколи не здавалося таким привабливим, як у цей момент. He had a nostalgic vision of his corner table, with the newspaper and the chessboard and the ever-flowing gin. |||nostalgiczna|||||||||||||||| Tuvo una visión nostálgica de su mesa de la esquina, con el periódico y el tablero de ajedrez y la ginebra siempre fluida. Miał nostalgiczne wyobrażenie o swoim rogu, ze swoją gazetą i szachownicą oraz nieustannie płynącym ginem. Above all, it would be warm in there. Sobre todo, haría calor allí. Przede wszystkim w środku byłoby ciepło. The next moment, not altogether by accident, he allowed himself to become separated from her by a small knot of people. ||||||||||||oddzielony|||||||| Następnej chwili, nieco przypadkowo, pozwolił sobie oddalić się od niej za pomocą małej grupki ludzi. Наступної миті, не зовсім випадково, він дозволив собі відокремитися від неї маленькою купкою людей. He made a half-hearted attempt to catch up, then slowed down, turned, and made off in the opposite direction. Znalazł się w połowie drogi w celu dogonienia, a następnie zwolnił, obrócił się i ruszył w przeciwnym kierunku. When he had gone fifty metres he looked back. Kiedy przeszedł pięćdziesiąt metrów, spojrzał wstecz. The street was not crowded, but already he could not distinguish her. Ulica nie była zatłoczona, ale już nie mógł jej odróżnić. Any one of a dozen hurrying figures might have been hers. ||||||||||jej Cualquiera de una docena de figuras apresuradas podría haber sido suya. Może to być któraś z tuzinu spieszących się postaci. Perhaps her thickened, stiffened body was no longer recognizable from behind. Quizás su cuerpo engrosado y rígido ya no fuera reconocible desde atrás.

‘At the time when it happens,' she had said, ‘you do mean it.' "En el momento en que sucede", había dicho, "lo dices en serio". ‚W momencie, gdy to się dzieje,' powiedziała, ‚naprawdę to masz na myśli.' «У той час, коли це відбувається, — сказала вона, — ти справді це маєш на увазі». He had meant it. Lo había dicho en serio. On naprawdę to miał na myśli. He had not merely said it, he had wished it. Nie tylko to powiedział, on tego pragnął. He had wished that she and not he should be delivered over to the —— Something changed in the music that trickled from the telescreen. ||||||||||||||||||||流れてきた||| Pragnął, aby to ona, a nie on, została oddana pod —— Coś zmieniło się w muzyce, która spływała z teleskreen. A cracked and jeering note, a yellow note, came into it. |||嘲笑する||||||| Wkradł się do niej pęknięty i szyderczy ton, żółty ton.

And then — perhaps it was not happening, perhaps it was only a memory taking on the semblance of sound — a voice was singing: ||||||||||||||||気配|||||| ||||||||||||||||pozór|||||| A potem — być może to się nie działo, być może to tylko wspomnienie przybierało postać dźwięku — jakiś głos śpiewał:

‘Under the spreading chestnut tree 'Bajo el castaño que se extiende

I sold you and you sold me ——'

The tears welled up in his eyes. ||涙が溢れた|||| Łzy napłynęły mu do oczu. A passing waiter noticed that his glass was empty and came back with the gin bottle. Un camarero que pasaba notó que su vaso estaba vacío y regresó con la botella de ginebra. Przechodzący kelner zauważył, że jego szklanka jest pusta i wrócił z butelką ginu.

He took up his glass and sniffed at it. Podniósł swoją szklankę i powąchał ją. The stuff grew not less but more horrible with every mouthful he drank. ||||||||||一口ごとに|| La cosa se volvía no menos, sino más horrible con cada bocado que bebía. Rzeczy stawały się coraz bardziej przerażające z każdym kęsem, który pił. З кожним ковтком, який він випивав, ця речовина ставала не меншою, а жахливішою. But it had become the element he swam in. Pero se había convertido en el elemento en el que nadaba. Ale stało się to elementem, w którym pływał. Але це стало стихією, в якій він поплив. It was his life, his death, and his resurrection. ||||||||復活 ||||||||zmartwychwst To było jego życie, jego śmierć i jego zmartwychwstanie. It was gin that sank him into stupor every night, and gin that revived him every morning. |||||||昏睡状態||||||||| When he woke, seldom before eleven hundred, with gummed-up eyelids and fiery mouth and a back that seemed to be broken, it would have been impossible even to rise from the horizontal if it had not been for the bottle and teacup placed beside the bed overnight. |||めったに|||||粘着した||||灼熱の||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||ティーカップ||||| ||||||||sklejonymi||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Cuando se despertaba, raras veces antes de las mil cien, con los párpados engomados, la boca ardiente y la espalda que parecía estar rota, habría sido imposible siquiera levantarse de la horizontal si no hubiera sido por la botella y la taza de té colocadas junto al cama durante la noche. Through the midday hours he sat with glazed face, the bottle handy, listening to the telescreen. |||||||うつろな|||||||| |||||||||||w zasięgu|||| Протягом полудня він сидів зі заскленим обличчям, тримаючи під рукою пляшку, і слухав телеекран. From fifteen to closing-time he was a fixture in the Chestnut Tree. ||||||||常連客|||| ||||||||stały bywalec|||| Desde las quince hasta la hora de cierre fue un habitual en el Castaño. Od piętnastej do zamknięcia był stałym bywalcem w Kasztanowym Drzewie. З п'ятнадцяти до закриття він був незмінним у Каштановому дереві. No one cared what he did any longer, no whistle woke him, no telescreen admonished him. ||||||||||||||叱責した| ||||||||||||||upominał| A nadie le importaba lo que hiciera, ningún silbato lo despertó, ninguna telepantalla lo amonestó. Nikt już nie przejmował się tym, co robił, żaden gwizdek go nie budził, żaden teleekran go nie upominał. Нікого більше не хвилювало, що він робив, жоден свисток не розбудив його, жоден телеекран не попереджав його. Occasionally, perhaps twice a week, he went to a dusty, forgotten-looking office in the Ministry of Truth and did a little work, or what was called work. De vez en cuando, tal vez dos veces por semana, iba a una oficina polvorienta y de aspecto olvidado en el Ministerio de la Verdad y hacía un poco de trabajo, o lo que se llamaba trabajo. Czasami, może dwa razy w tygodniu, szedł do zakurzonego, zapomnianego biura w Ministerstwie Prawdy i robił trochę pracy, lub tego, co nazywano pracą. He had been appointed to a sub-committee of a sub-committee which had sprouted from one of the innumerable committees dealing with minor difficulties that arose in the compilation of the Eleventh Edition of the Newspeak Dictionary. |||||||||||||||||||無数の||||||||||編集作業|||||||| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||opracowywaniu|||||||| They were engaged in producing something called an Interim Report, but what it was that they were reporting on he had never definitely found out. ||||||||中間の|||||||||||||||| Estaban dedicados a producir algo llamado Informe Provisional, pero nunca se había enterado definitivamente de qué era lo que estaban informando. Вони готували щось під назвою «Проміжний звіт», але про що саме вони повідомляли, він так і не з’ясував. It was something to do with the question of whether commas should be placed inside brackets, or outside. ||||||||||コンマ|||||括弧|| |||||||||||||||nawiasów|| Tenía algo que ver con la cuestión de si las comas deberían colocarse entre corchetes o fuera. Це було щось пов’язане з питанням про те, чи потрібно ставити коми в дужках чи поза ними. There were four others on the committee, all of them persons similar to himself. Na komitecie było jeszcze czterech innych członków, wszyscy podobni do niego. There were days when they assembled and then promptly dispersed again, frankly admitting to one another that there was not really anything to be done. |||||||||rozproszyli się||||||||||||||| Były dni, kiedy zbierali się, a potem szybko się rozpraszali, szczerze przyznając sobie nawzajem, że tak naprawdę nie ma nic do zrobienia. But there were other days when they settled down to their work almost eagerly, making a tremendous show of entering up their minutes and drafting long memoranda which were never finished — when the argument as to what they were supposedly arguing about grew extraordinarily involved and abstruse, with subtle haggling over definitions, enormous digressions, quarrels — threats, even, to appeal to higher authority. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||memoranda|||||||||||||||||||||||haggling|||||||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||難解な|||駆け引き||||脱線話題|||||||| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||targowanie się||||dygresje|||||||| Pero hubo otros días en los que se establecieron en su trabajo casi con entusiasmo, haciendo un tremendo espectáculo al registrar sus actas y redactar largos memorandos que nunca se terminaron, cuando la discusión sobre lo que supuestamente discutían se volvió extraordinariamente complicada y abstrusa. con sutiles regateos sobre definiciones, enormes digresiones, disputas, amenazas, incluso, de apelar a una autoridad superior. Ale były też inne dni, kiedy zasiadali do pracy prawie z entuzjazmem, robiąc ogromne show, wpisując swoje protokoły i pisząc długie memoranda, które nigdy nie były zakończone — kiedy argument dotyczący tego, o co rzekomo się spierali, stawał się niesamowicie skomplikowany i trudny do zrozumienia, z subtelnymi targami dotyczącymi definicji, ogromnymi dygresjami, kłótniami — a nawet groźbami odwołania się do wyższej władzy. Але були й інші дні, коли вони майже охоче бралися за роботу, влаштовуючи неймовірне шоу, записуючи свої протоколи та складаючи довгі меморандуми, які так і не були закінчені, — коли суперечка щодо того, про що вони нібито сперечалися, ставала надзвичайно заплутаною та незрозумілою, з тонким торгом щодо визначень, величезними відступами, сварками — навіть погрозами звернутися до вищої інстанції. And then suddenly the life would go out of them and they would sit round the table looking at one another with extinct eyes, like ghosts fading at cock- crow. |||||||||||||||||||||||||duchy|||| Y entonces, de repente, se les acababa la vida y se sentaban alrededor de la mesa mirándose unos a otros con ojos apagados, como fantasmas que se desvanecen ante el canto de un gallo. А потім раптом життя з них згасало, і вони сиділи за столом, дивлячись один на одного погаслими очима, як привиди, що згасають під спів півня.

The telescreen was silent for a moment. Winston raised his head again. The bulletin! But no, they were merely changing the music. Ale nie, po prostu zmieniali muzykę. He had the map of Africa behind his eyelids. Miał mapę Afryki za powiekami. The movement of the armies was a diagram: a black arrow tearing vertically southward, and a white arrow horizontally eastward, across the tail of the first. |||||||||||||||||||東向きに||||||最初の矢 |||||||||||||||||||na wschód|||ogon||| El movimiento de los ejércitos era un diagrama: una flecha negra que se desgarraba verticalmente hacia el sur y una flecha blanca horizontalmente hacia el este, a través de la cola del primero. Ruch armii był diagramem: czarna strzała rozrywająca pionowo na południe i biała strzała poziomo na wschód, wzdłuż ogona pierwszej. Рух армій був схемою: чорна стріла рветься вертикально на південь, а біла стріла горизонтально на схід, через хвіст першої. As though for reassurance he looked up at the imperturbable face in the portrait. |||||||||動じない|||| |||||||||niezruszona|||| Como para tranquilizarse, miró el rostro imperturbable del retrato. Was it conceivable that the second arrow did not even exist? ¿Era concebible que la segunda flecha ni siquiera existiera? Czy to było do wyobrażenia, że druga strzała nawet nie istniała?

His interest flagged again. ||osłabła| Jego zainteresowanie znów osłabło. Його інтерес знову згас. He drank another mouthful of gin, picked up the white knight and made a tentative move. ||||||||||||||niepewna| Wypił kolejny łyk ginu, podniósł białego konia i wykonał niepewny ruch. Check. But it was evidently not the right move, because ——

Uncalled, a memory floated into his mind. 不意に|||||| Nieproszona|||||| He saw a candle-lit room with a vast white-counterpaned bed, and himself, a boy of nine or ten, sitting on the floor, shaking a dice-box, and laughing excitedly. ||||||||||白いカバーの|||||||||||||||||||| ||||||||||z białym nar|||||||||||||||||||| His mother was sitting opposite him and also laughing. Jego matka siedziała naprzeciwko niego i również się śmiała.

It must have been about a month before she disappeared. To musiało być około miesiąca przed jej zniknięciem. It was a moment of reconciliation, when the nagging hunger in his belly was forgotten and his earlier affection for her had temporarily revived. |||||pojednania|||||||||||||||||| To była chwila pojednania, kiedy dokuczliwy głód w jego brzuchu został zapomniany, a jego wcześniejsze uczucie do niej tymczasowo ożyło. He remembered the day well, a pelting, drenching day when the water streamed down the window-pane and the light indoors was too dull to read by. |||||||przenikliwe des||||||||||||światło||||przytłum||| Recordaba bien el día, un día vertiginoso y empapado en el que el agua corría por el cristal de la ventana y la luz del interior era demasiado apagada para leer. Dobrze pamiętał ten dzień, dzień deszczowy, w który woda spływała po szybie okna, a światło wewnątrz było zbyt przytłumione, by móc czytać. Він добре пам’ятав той день, пронизливий, мокрий день, коли вода стікала по віконній шибці, а світло в кімнаті було надто тьмяним, щоб прочитати. The boredom of the two children in the dark, cramped bedroom became unbearable. Nuda dwojga dzieci w ciemnej, zatłoczonej sypialni stała się nie do zniesienia. Winston whined and grizzled, made futile demands for food, fretted about the room pulling everything out of place and kicking the wainscoting until the neighbours banged on the wall, while the younger child wailed intermittently. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||断続的に |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||płakał| Winston jęczał i marudził, robił bezowocne żądania jedzenia, niepokoił się o pokój, wyciągając wszystko z miejsca i kopiąc boazerię, aż sąsiedzi zaczęli walić w ścianę, podczas gdy młodsze dziecko co chwila płakało. Вінстон скиглив і сивив, марно вимагав їжі, хвилювався через те, що кімната зрушувала все з місць і штовхала ногами по вагонці, аж поки сусіди не застукали об стіну, а молодша дитина уривчасто голосила. In the end his mother said, ‘Now be good, and I'll buy you a toy. Na koniec jego matka powiedziała: 'Teraz bądź grzeczny, a kupię ci zabawkę.' A lovely toy — you'll love it'; and then she had gone out in the rain, to a little general shop which was still sporadically open nearby, and came back with a cardboard box containing an outfit of Snakes and Ladders. |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||ヘビとハシゴ|| |||||||||||||||||||||||sporadycznie|||||||||||||||| Un juguete encantador, te encantará '; y luego había salido bajo la lluvia, a una pequeña tienda general cercana que todavía estaba abierta esporádicamente, y regresó con una caja de cartón que contenía un conjunto de serpientes y escaleras. Cudowna zabawka - pokochasz ją'; a potem wyszła w deszczu do małego sklepu, który wciąż sporadycznie był otwarty w pobliżu, i wróciła z tekturowym pudełkiem zawierającym zestaw do gry w węże i drabiny. He could still remember the smell of the damp cardboard. ||||||||wilgotny| Wciąż pamiętał zapach wilgotnej tektury. It was a miserable outfit. To był nędzny zestaw. Це був жалюгідний одяг. The board was cracked and the tiny wooden dice were so ill-cut that they would hardly lie on their sides. El tablero estaba agrietado y los diminutos dados de madera estaban tan mal cortados que difícilmente se tendrían de costado. Plansza była pęknięta, a małe drewniane kostki były tak źle wykonane, że ledwo leżały na bokach. Winston looked at the thing sulkily and without interest. |||||ふてくされて||| |||||z niezadowoleni||| Winston spojrzał na to z niezadowoleniem i bez zainteresowania. But then his mother lit a piece of candle and they sat down on the floor to play. ||||火をつけた||||||||||||| Ale potem jego matka zapaliła kawałek świecy i usiedli na podłodze, aby grać. Soon he was wildly excited and shouting with laughter as the tiddly-winks climbed hopefully up the ladders and then came slithering down the snakes again, almost to the starting-point. |||||||||||ティドリー||||||||||ずるずる滑る||||||||| ||||||||||||gra w tiddly|||||||||||||||||| Pronto se emocionó salvajemente y gritó de risa mientras los guiños tiddly subían esperanzados por las escaleras y luego bajaban deslizándose por las serpientes de nuevo, casi hasta el punto de partida. Wkrótce był dziko podekscytowany i krzyczał ze śmiechu, gdy tiddly-winks wspinały się z nadzieją po drabinach, a potem zjeżdżały w dół po wężach, prawie do punktu startowego. Невдовзі він був шалено схвильований і кричав від сміху, коли підморгувачі з надією піднімалися по драбинах, а потім знову ковзали вниз по зміях, майже до вихідної точки. They played eight games, winning four each. Grali w osiem gier, wygrywając po cztery każda. His tiny sister, too young to understand what the game was about, had sat propped up against a bolster, laughing because the others were laughing. Jego mała siostrzyczka, za młoda, by rozumieć, o co chodzi w grze, siedziała oparta o poduszkę, śmiejąc się, ponieważ inni się śmiali. For a whole afternoon they had all been happy together, as in his earlier childhood. Durante toda una tarde todos habían sido felices juntos, como en su primera infancia. Przez całe popołudnie wszyscy byli szczęśliwi razem, jak w jego wcześniejszym dzieciństwie.

He pushed the picture out of his mind. Sacó la imagen de su mente. Odepchnął ten obrazek z myśli. It was a false memory. To było fałszywe wspomnienie. He was troubled by false memories occasionally. Od czasu do czasu dręczyły go fałszywe wspomnienia. They did not matter so long as one knew them for what they were. No importaban mientras uno los supiera por lo que eran. Nie miały znaczenia, dopóki człowiek wiedział, czym były. Вони не мали значення, доки їх знали такими, якими вони були. Some things had happened, others had not happened. Niektóre rzeczy się zdarzyły, inne się nie zdarzyły. He turned back to the chessboard and picked up the white knight again. Zwrócił się z powrotem do szachownicy i ponownie podniósł białego konia. Almost in the same instant it dropped on to the board with a clatter. |||||||||||||hałasem Casi en el mismo instante cayó sobre el tablero con estrépito. Prawie w tym samym momencie upadł na planszę z hukiem. He had started as though a pin had run into him. ||||||||刺さった|| Se había sobresaltado como si se le hubiera clavado un alfiler. Zaczął, jakby igła w niego wpadła. Він здригнувся, наче шпилька врізалася в нього.

A shrill trumpet-call had pierced the air. Un agudo toque de trompeta había atravesado el aire. Przenikliwy dźwięk trąbki przeszył powietrze. Пронизливий звук труби пронизав повітря. It was the bulletin! To był komunikat! Victory! Zwycięstwo! It always meant victory when a trumpet-call preceded the news. ||||||||先立つ|| ||||||||preceded|| Zawsze oznaczało zwycięstwo, gdy przed wiadomościami słychać było dźwięk trąbki. A sort of electric drill ran through the cafe. ||||wiertarka|||| Jakby elektryczny wiertło przebiegało przez kawiarnię. Even the waiters had started and pricked up their ears. ||||||nasłuchiwać||| Incluso los camareros se habían sobresaltado y aguzado el oído.

The trumpet-call had let loose an enormous volume of noise. Dźwięk trąbki uwolnił ogromną ilość hałasu. Already an excited voice was gabbling from the telescreen, but even as it started it was almost drowned by a roar of cheering from outside. |||||しゃべりまくっている||||||||||||||||||| |||||paplająca||||||||||||przytłum||||||| Już podekscytowany głos przemawiał z telescreenu, ale w momencie, gdy się rozpoczął, był prawie zagłuszany przez ryk oklasków z zewnątrz. The news had run round the streets like magic. Wiadomość rozeszła się po ulicach jak za sprawą magii. He could hear just enough of what was issuing from the telescreen to realize that it had all happened, as he had foreseen; a vast seaborne armada had secretly assembled a sudden blow in the enemy's rear, the white arrow tearing across the tail of the black. |||||||||||||||||||||||||海上の||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||w tajemnicy|||||||wroga||||||||||| Mógł usłyszeć wystarczająco dużo z tego, co dobiegało z teleekranu, aby zrozumieć, że wszystko się zdarzyło, tak jak przewidział; ogromna morska armada potajemnie zebrała się, zadając nagły cios w tył wroga, biały strzał przerywający ogon czarnego. Він чув достатньо того, що лунало з телеекрану, щоб зрозуміти, що все сталося, як він і передбачав; величезна морська армада таємно зібрала раптовий удар у тил ворога, біла стріла розірвала хвіст чорної. Fragments of triumphant phrases pushed themselves through the din: ‘Vast strategic manoeuvre — perfect co-ordination — utter rout — half a million prisoners — complete demoralization — control of the whole of Africa — bring the war within measurable distance of its end — victory — greatest victory in human history — victory, victory, victory!' ||||||||||||||||rout|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||||||完敗|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||||hałas|||||||całkowita|całkowita kl|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Fragmenty triumfalnych fraz przebiły się przez hałas: ‘Ogromna strategia manewru — perfekcyjna koordynacja — całkowita klęska — pół miliona jeńców — całkowita demoralizacja — kontrola nad całą Afryką — zbliżenie wojny do mierzalnego końca — zwycięstwo — największe zwycięstwo w historii ludzkości — zwycięstwo, zwycięstwo, zwycięstwo!’ Уривки тріумфальних фраз пробивалися крізь гомін: «Великий стратегічний маневр — ідеальна координація — повний розгром — півмільйона полонених — повна деморалізація — контроль над цілою Африкою — наблизити війну до кінця — перемоги — найбільша перемога в історії людства — перемога, перемога, перемога!

Under the table Winston's feet made convulsive movements. Pod stołem stopy Winstona wykonały konwulsyjne ruchy. He had not stirred from his seat, but in his mind he was running, swiftly running, he was with the crowds outside, cheering himself deaf. ||||||||||||||||||||||||głuchy No se había movido de su asiento, pero en su mente estaba corriendo, corriendo velozmente, estaba con la multitud afuera, vitoreándose sordo. Nie poruszył się z miejsca, ale w jego umyśle biegł, szybko biegł, był z tłumami na zewnątrz, wiwatując na siebie do nieprzytomności. Він не ворухнувся зі свого місця, але подумки біг, стрімко біг, він був серед натовпу надворі, підбадьорюючи себе глухим. He looked up again at the portrait of Big Brother. Spojrzał znowu na portret Wielkiego Brata. The colossus that bestrode the world! |||towered over|| |世界を支配する巨人||世界を跨ぐ巨人|| |||wznosił się|| Kolos, który stąpał po świecie! Колос, що подолав світ! The rock against which the hordes of Asia dashed themselves in vain! ||||||||rzuciły się||| ¡La roca contra la que se estrellaron en vano las hordas de Asia! Skała, o którą hordy Azji rozbiły się na próżno! Скеля, об яку марно розбивалися орди Азії! He thought how ten minutes ago — yes, only ten minutes — there had still been equivocation in his heart as he wondered whether the news from the front would be of victory or defeat. ||||||||||||||曖昧さ|||||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||||wahanie|||||||||||||||||| Pensó que diez minutos antes —sí, sólo diez minutos— todavía había habido equívocos en su corazón mientras se preguntaba si las noticias del frente serían de victoria o derrota. Myślał, jak dziesięć minut temu — tak, tylko dziesięć minut — w jego sercu wciąż istniała niejednoznaczność, gdy zastanawiał się, czy wiadomości z frontu przyniosą zwycięstwo, czy klęskę. Ah, it was more than a Eurasian army that had perished! ¡Ah, era más que un ejército euroasiático el que había perecido! Ach, to była więcej niż tylko armia euroazjatycka, która zginęła! Ах, загинуло більше, ніж євразійська армія! Much had changed in him since that first day in the Ministry of Love, but the final, indispensable, healing change had never happened, until this moment. |||||||||||||||||niezbędna|||||||| Mucho había cambiado en él desde ese primer día en el Ministerio del Amor, pero el cambio final, indispensable y sanador nunca había sucedido, hasta este momento. Wiele się w nim zmieniło od pierwszego dnia w Ministerstwie Miłości, ale ostateczna, niezbędna, uzdrawiająca zmiana nigdy się nie zdarzyła, aż do tej chwili.

The voice from the telescreen was still pouring forth its tale of prisoners and booty and slaughter, but the shouting outside had died down a little. |||||||wylewająca|||||||łupów||||||||||| Głos z teleskrinu wciąż opowiadał o więźniach, łupach i rzezi, ale krzyki na zewnątrz trochę ucichły. The waiters were turning back to their work. Kelnerzy wrócili do swojej pracy. One of them approached with the gin bottle. Jeden z nich podszedł z butelką ginu. Winston, sitting in a blissful dream, paid no attention as his glass was filled up. ||||happy|||||||||| Winston, sentado en un sueño feliz, no prestó atención mientras se llenaba su vaso. Winston, siedząc w błogim śnie, nie zwracał uwagi, gdy jego szklanka została napełniona. He was not running or cheering any longer. Ya no corría ni animaba. Nie biegał ani nie kibicował już więcej. He was back in the Ministry of Love, with everything forgiven, his soul white as snow. Estaba de regreso en el Ministerio del Amor, con todo perdonado, su alma blanca como la nieve. Wrócił do Ministerstwa Miłości, z wszystkimi przebaczeniem, jego dusza biała jak śnieg. He was in the public dock, confessing everything, implicating everybody. ||||||||incriminating everyone| ||||||||巻き込む| ||||||||wskazując na| Był na publicznej ławie oskarżonych, przyznając się do wszystkiego, implicując wszystkich. He was walking down the white-tiled corridor, with the feeling of walking in sunlight, and an armed guard at his back. ||||||with tiles||||||||||||||| ||||||płytkowym||||||||||||||| Szedł wzdłuż białotłoczonych korytarzy, czując się jakby szedł w słońcu, z uzbrojoną ochroną za plecami. The long- hoped-for bullet was entering his brain. La bala largamente esperada estaba entrando en su cerebro. Długo oczekiwana kula wchodziła do jego mózgu.

He gazed up at the enormous face. Miró hacia el enorme rostro. Patrzył w górę na ogromną twarz. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. Czterdzieści lat zajęło mu nauczenie się, jaki rodzaj uśmiechu ukryty jest pod ciemnymi wąsami. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! ||niepotrzebne| ¡Oh cruel e innecesario malentendido! O okrutne, niepotrzebne nieporozumienie! O stubborn, self- willed exile from the loving breast! |||determined||||| ||||頑固で自己中心的な追放者|||| |||własny||||| ¡Oh, exiliado terco y voluntarioso del pecho amoroso! O uparty, samowolny wygnańcu z kochającego łona! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. ||香りのする|||||||| ||zapachowych|||||||| Dos lágrimas con olor a ginebra se escurrieron por los lados de su nariz. Dwie łzy pachnące ginem spłynęły wzdłuż jego nosa. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. Ale było w porządku, wszystko było w porządku, walka została zakończona. He had won the victory over himself. Se había vencido a sí mismo. Wygrał zwycięstwo nad samym sobą. He loved Big Brother. Kochał Wielkiego Brata.
