DESCRIPTION:
Jones's Manor Farm into Animal Farm, a wholly democratic society built on the credo that All Animals Are Created Equal. 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. 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.
It is for your sake that we drink that milk and eat those apples." While this swinish brotherhood sells out the revolution, cynically editing the Seven Commandments to excuse their violence and greed, the common animals are once again left hungry and exhausted, no better off than in the days when humans ran the farm. The whole management and organisation of the farm depend on us. Those that go upon four legs or wings are friends and the two-legged are, by definition, the enemy. "We pigs are brainworkers. (The latter is three pages longer and less fun to read.) Fueled by Orwell's intense disillusionme
Elizabeth Macgregor-Skinner said Misleading and poor copy edition of Animal Farm.. First, let me say that this review is not about the story Animal Farm - which is a masterpiece and classic that I read years ago. I just purchased this version for my son, who must read the book this summer and was completely disappointed in this edition. It is very strange and not from a . very poor quality printing. Avoid this edition. Kanga We received a very flimsy and poorly printed paperback, even though we purchased this directly from amazon and not a third party seller. The book we received shows the retail price printed on the back as 60 Rupee, or 93 US cents. The selling price here was 7 times that.. Four legs good, two legs badunless you are a pig James Bates I read this in high school and did not get all of the metaphors and symbolism. Now after many years later I am blown away buy its power of predictability. Scary how "alternate facts" are finding it's way to today. Great book!!
