Beschreibung

A sharp-edged portrayal of the slippery slope from revolt for equality to tyrannical totalitarianism, George Orwell's Animal Farm follows a group of mistreated animals as they rebel and attempt to take over their farm.

In Orwell's timeless allegory, the animals brandish biting slogans and declare equality across the farm, but their idealisms slowly merge into a new kind of enslavement as one of the pigs leads them into a dictatorship. First published in 1945, this satirical novella evidences the endless corruptive cycle of power.

A must-read for book lovers of all ages, this new edition of Animal Farm has been republished with an introductory essay by Orwell, 'Why I Write'.
