    What overt act of rebellion does Winston commit in his apartment?

    Explanation
    Winston's act of writing in a journal can be seen as an overt act of rebellion because in the totalitarian society depicted in the novel 1984, individual thoughts and expressions are strictly controlled and suppressed by the Party. By secretly writing in a journal, Winston is defying the Party's control over his mind and asserting his own individuality and freedom of thought. It is a dangerous act that could lead to severe consequences if discovered by the authorities, making it a clear act of rebellion.
