Animal Farm - George Orwell

All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others. When the animals of Manor Farm chase away their cruel owner, they believe they are finally free. Together, they dream of a fair world where every animal is equal and no one lives in fear. But little by little, the pigs begin to take control, changing the rules, spreading lies, and gaining more and more power. In Animal Farm, George Orwell tells a powerful and easy-to-understand story about how leaders can abuse power and betray the people who trusted them. The novel is often seen as a reflection of the rise of Joseph Stalin and the corruption that followed the Russian Revolution. Simple on the surface but deeply meaningful,Animal Farm is a story about freedom, manipulation, and the danger of blindly trusting those in power. Decades after it was written, its message remains just as important today. “Brilliantly concise and devastatingly clear,Animal Farm transforms the tragedy of Stalinist Russia into a haunting fable about power, corruption, and the ease with which freedom can be surrendered. Orwell achieves what few writers ever do: a political novel that feels both timeless and terrifyingly immediate.” - The New York Times ★★★★★
