Description

All animals are equal - but some are more equal than others. When the animals of Manor Farm overthrow their master and take over the farm themselves, they imagine it is the beginning of a life of freedom and equality. However, as time passes, a group of pigs, led by Napoleon and Snowball, begin to consolidate power and exploit the other animals. Orwell's novel is a powerful exploration of the corrupting influence of power and the dangers of totalitarianism. Written in 1943, it was initially refused publication due to its scathing critique of Stalin, but has since become a world-renowned work of satire. This Penguin Modern Classics edition includes an introduction by Malcolm Bradbury. The story is a tragic fable that exposes the darker side of revolution and the ways in which ideals can be perverted over time.
