Animal Farm – George Orwell by George Orwell

"All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."

The overworked and mistreated animals of Manor Farm revolt against their human master, aiming to create a utopian society based on equality and justice. However, the pigs, led by the cunning Napoleon and the eloquent Snowball, gradually hijack the revolution for their own power, turning the farm into a dictatorship even more oppressive than the one they overthrew.

George Orwell's allegorical novella is a biting satire of the Russian Revolution and the rise of Stalinism. With devastating simplicity, it exposes the corrupting influence of power and the way language can be manipulated to justify tyranny. It remains a timeless fable about the fragility of freedom.
