THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING! I loved how you could see the descent into hells of the farm. Very well written and the message is clear. Animal farm could've just as well been titled "human society".
very on the nose, but necessarily so due to its terrifying relevance
I somehow managed to miss reading this in school and in all the years since, so I picked it up as an audiobook so I didn't feel so disconnected from the entire world, which does seem to have read it. I did enjoy it, but in the same sort of way you "enjoy" a thriller you know is going to end badly. I could see most of the steps coming as they came (some of this might be due to having read 1984 in school, so I am familiar with Orwell, even if not with this particular novella), and it left me with the kind of terror you only get looking on at something that is going to end terribly and not being able to stop it. As we got closer and closer to the end, it started becoming the sort of runaway train that could only really end one way, and watching the poor animals on their way to this ending was distressing. I liked most of the characters, or at least felt deeply for them in this situation that was rapidly spiraling out of their control because of their own lack of education and understanding. It was horrifying to see them acquiescing to things I could tell were going to lead to disaster, to see them falling for each and every trick played on their minds and their hope, and to know that there was nothing they could do. What makes it worse is the idea that, for all this is clearly a fantasy-type novella, it felt real. This sort of things has happened, and for many of the same reasons. You create an outside enemy, you control the situation, you act like you are friends with those under your command, and things always seem to end badly. It is absolutely worth a read if you, like me, managed to somehow miss it. It will leave you feeling a bit paranoid and a bit horrified, but all the best dystopians do, and this certainly belongs to that class.
Pig overthrows man Revolution Pig becomes the same as man Nothing changes This was sad
me encantó, hasta en un momento me llegaron a dar miedo los cerdos
🐖3.4 stars🐎🫰 Obviously the political takes and the morals behind this book. Beautifully implied, easy to understand.👍Very nice characterisation and demonstration of corruption.👌This is my problem -- I found it boring because I don't like reading classics.
Me sorprende no haberlo leído antes, pero creo que vale mucho la pena leerlo, es cortito pero intenso y cargado de simbolismos.
God I was so bored reading this. Unless you knoe all the background of the Russian revolution this will not be a fun book to read
2.5Estuvo bueno, aunque muy predecible y muy monótono. Pero es un tema muy interesante y un libro igual de interesante Lloré a mares con la muerte y rato antes de la muerte de Bóxer
3.5/5A very good but really boring one."The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which."(Animal farm)
