  • This has to be one of my favorite books of all time. I have read it a few times and it never gets old. You can get through it quite quickly as it isn't very long. Just a fantastic book that everyone should read

  • If you ever get a chance, go to youtube and look up the animal farm vid. Someone took that Hallmark special and merged it with Pink Floyd's "Animals". Very cool.

  • When allegory gets this heavy-handed, you have to wonder if fiction really served the author's purposes best.

George Orwell's classic satire of the Russian Revolution is an intimate part of our contemporary culture. It is an account of the bold struggle that transforms Mr. Jones's Manor Farm into Animal Farm, a wholly democratic society built on the credo that All Animals Are Created Equal. Out of their cleverness, the pigs Napoleon, Squealer, and Snowball emerge as leaders of the new community in a subtle evolution that bears an insidious familiarity. The climax is the brutal betrayal of the faithful horse Boxer, when totalitarian rule is reestablished with the bloodstained postscript to the founding slogan: But Some Animals Are More Equal Than Others.
