Reseña: Animal Farm is considered a classic Satire on
dictatorship and one of Orwell"s most enduring short
novels. Fueled by Orwell"s intense disillusionment with
Soviet Communism, Animal Farm is a nearly perfect piece
of writing, both an engaging story and an allegory that
actually works. All animals are equal, but some animals
are more equal than others." A farm is taken over by its
overworked, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and
stirring slogans, they set out to create a paradise of
progress, justice, and equality. Thus the stage is set
for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned-a
tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from
revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as
terrible. The cutting clarity and savage comedy of George
Orwell"s masterpiece have a meaning and message still
ferociously fresh.
