Animal Farm

‘The Animal Farm is considered a classic Satire on dictatorship and one of Orwell’s most enduring short novels. Fueled by Orwell’s intense disillusionment with Soviet Communism, Animal Farm is a nearly perfect piece of writing, both an engaging story and an allegory that actually works. All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.¿ A farm is taken over by its overworked, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and stirring slogans, they set out to create a paradise of progress, justice, and equality. Thus the stage is set for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned¿a tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible. The cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell¿s masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh.’
