ANIMAL FARM

Animal Farm by George Orwell is a powerful allegorical novella that critiques political systems and explores themes of power, corruption, and inequality. Set on a farm where the animals overthrow their human owner in an effort to establish an equal society, the story reveals how the animals’ quest for equality is slowly undermined by the rise of a tyrannical leadership.

Through the character of Napoleon, a pig who gradually assumes total control, Orwell illustrates how power can corrupt and how idealistic revolutions can be hijacked by those who seek personal gain. “Animal Farm” is a sharp, thought-provoking commentary on the nature of politics, revolution, and societal structures, serving as an allegory for the Russian Revolution and the subsequent rise of Stalinism.

With its accessible narrative and unforgettable characters, “Animal Farm” is a timeless classic that explores the dangers of absolute power, the fragility of idealism, and the manipulation of language and truth. It’s a must-read for anyone interested in politics, history, or social justice.
