Animal Farm: A Fairy Story

Animal Farm (1945) is a powerful allegory by George Orwell that immerses you in the struggle for freedom and the betrayal of power. On a farm where the animals rise up against the humans to build a fairer society, ideals begin to crumble as leadership falls into the hands of a few. What starts as a dream of equality turns into a new form of oppression. A story of manipulation, ambition, and disillusionment, told with the clarity and critical force of one of the greatest authors of the 20th century.

    A must-read that never gets old. Politics rests on the back of whoever chose not to understand or contradict.

    i actually had this book as required reading in my English class and i don't regret it! I will admit, if we hadn't analysed it i would have though it was about some educated farm animals. however, after analysing the themes it's a really great book with strong symbolism of communism and the Russian revolution. the writing creates an unlikely emotional attachment to the characters as you go with them through their pain and i couldn't thank Orwell enough for this. i really enjoyed this book and recommend it 100% :)

Quotes

  • Jette Stagehas quoted8 years ago
    not adopt his vices. No animal must ever live in a house, or sleep in a bed, or wear clothes, or drink alcohol, or smoke tobacco, or touch money, or engage in trade. All the habits of Man are evil. And, above all, no animal must ever tyrannize over his own kind. Weak or strong, clever or simple, we are all brothers. No animal must ever kill any other animal. All animals are equal.

    BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE

    EQUAL THAN OTHERS

    Only old Benjamin professed to remember every detail of his long life and to know that things never had been, nor ever could be much better or much worse−hunger, hardship, and disappointment being, so he said, the unalterable law of life.
