Allegorical satire on corruption and power dynamics.

"Animal Farm" isn't just a tale about animals; it's a timeless mirror reflecting the continual cycle of power and betrayal in political movements. Orwell's mastery in using a farm as a microcosm of society offers a sharp and somewhat distressing examination of human nature and governance. It's concise, yet every page resonates with layered meaning — a recommendable oeuvre for anyone intrigued by the complexities of leadership and the creeping seduction of authoritarianism.

Description

Tired of their servitude to man, a group of farm animals revolt and establish their own society, only to be betrayed into worse servitude by their leaders, the pigs, whose slogan becomes: “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.” Published in 1945, this powerful satire of the Russian Revolution under Stalin remains as vivid and relevant today as it was on its first publication.
