animal farm book review

 

The animal farm by George Orwell is which talks about the set in a world where animals are much cleverer than now. And because of their cleverness, the pigs started a revolution against the humans. Pigs could speak fluently in English unlike the other animals, and that gave them the power to be leaders. 

From logical thought process, Animal Farm is just a simple tale of animals out throwing some farmers for their own control, but through this simple concept, Orwell manages to depict the path from revolution to all-out corruption. The book presents itself as a allegory of animals on a farm, that out-throw the human in control, and lead a society devoted on the utmost equality and fairness between all animals. However as the society passes on, the equality diminishes and class and status pull apart and seclude the different animals. Overall this story shows how a society’s ideologies can be manipulated to lead to corruption by the ones in power.

The book is very well written, and it presents a easier way to digest and understand communism without the need of learning and possessing the knowledge of Communist History to understand the downfall and misconceptions of communism. The book is an easy way to learn communism, why it ultimately failed, and who caused and connected what issue in communism. The book is also nice as it presents all these high-knowledge topics in a easy understandable fairy tale that is meant for both kids and adults. 

This book is a very good example of proper fictional writing that serves as a way to explain great events in history. It focuses on Communism and Orwell finds a way to explain the ultimate downfall of communism in a light-hearted fairy tale for all ages.
