Animal Farm

Animal Farm is a satirical allegory that explores themes of rebellion and power as farm animals overthrow their owner, only to find that a new elite, led by pigs, takes control. With humor and a sense of urgency, the story offers a powerful critique of political tyranny, reflecting historical events surrounding the Russian Revolution and Stalinist Russia. First published in 1945, Orwell’s novella is a thought-provoking examination of how ideals can be corrupted by those in power.
