Animal Farm by George Orwell
Animals that have been abused and overworked on a farm take over. They set out to construct a paradise of advancement, fairness, and equality with fiery idealism and passionate slogans. The stage is therefore set for one of the most insightful satirical fables ever written—a sharply witted fairy tale for adults that charts the progression from the revolt against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as dreadful.
When Animal Farm was initially published, it was thought to be directed towards Stalinist Russia. Today, it is glaringly obvious that George Orwell’s masterpiece has a meaning and a message that are still fiercely relevant wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, regardless of the cause.

The Russian Revolution and the early years of the Soviet Union are specifically referenced in the allegory of insurrection known as Animal Farm. This book is a work of art in terms of inventiveness and layout. Even if Orwell is trying to get a point across, the story’s brilliance cannot be discounted. It’s undoubtedly a story worth chewing over because it makes you think.
It is a thinly veiled condemnation of Stalinism, even though it is set in rural England, and was written when the dictator was at the height of his power and a crucial ally in the struggle against Hitler. Making the parallel links requires a basic knowledge of European history between the 1920s and 1930s, but even without this information, the plot holds together. This is a tale of how those who are less fortunate might fall prey to others who are cunning. The abuse of power and the ruthless exploitation of the willing by the unscrupulous are the main topics.
