Animal Farm

George Orwell's famous satire of Stalin's Russia told through the guise of a farm animal rebellion.Published in 1945, George Orwell's classic allegory, Animal Farm, is a satire about the corrupting effects of power which reflect Orwell's views on the failures of communism. This edition features an introduction by journalist and writer Jason Cowley.When the old Major, a highly respected white boar, gathers his fellow farm animals to preach about freedom, rebellion and the evils of man, he kicks off a revolution that has been brewing for years. The animals drive out their drunken farmer, Mr Jones, and create their own society which promises equality for all. Two scheming pigs, Napoleon and Snowball, appoint themselves leaders and what begins as a supposedly equalitarian community descends into an increasingly violent and hierarchical society permeated by lies and corruption.Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library, a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket sized classics with gold
