Animal Farm
by George Orwell
The most famous of all the political allegories of the twentieth century to date, Animal Farm is a story about a group of barn animals rebelling against their vicious human masters, rebelling only to submit to the tyranny built by their own species, we can rightly say that they have become a universal drama. Orwell is one of the few modern satirists comparable to Jonathan Swift in power, art, and moral authority; In animal husbandry, the logic of backup prose and black comedy brightly underscores its harsh message. Taking the betrayed promise of the Russian Revolution as a starting point, Orwell, with his bitter wisdom, puts forward a vision that gives us the clearest understanding of the possible outcomes of our social and political actions.
