Description

Alternate cover edition of ISBN 9781840228038

After years of exploitation, neglect, and despair, the animals of Manor Farm revolt. They drive owner Mr. Jones off the land and rechristen the property Animal Farm, a utopia of equality and mutual support. But Napoleon, a young boar who assumes command after the rebellion, is hungry for power. And as the pigs consolidate control, all the good intentions of Animal Farm are crushed by a new and inevitable tyranny.

George Orwell’s Animal Farm, the chilling allegorical satire about the working class and the gripping rhetoric of despots, illustrates just how easy the slide into oppression and totalitarianism can be.

I really liked this book, I didn't expect it to criticise the Soviet Union so explicitly.

October 4th 2026

Mucho enojo, final pésimo y crudo.

Mood: haunting · tense Pacing: medium-paced Focus: plot-driven

Ótimo livro para causar reflexões.
É um cautionary tale ( um conto de aviso), no qual os animais começam uma rebelião e o que antes vira um sonho de liberdade se transforma em uma situação até pior de como eles estavam antes sob os cuidados do fazendeiro ( embora eles nunca percebem isso). Um livro atemporal que nos alerta sobre a manipulação e o poder descuidado em mãos erradas.
