Reviews
" Animal Farm remains our great satire on the darker face of modern history." Malcolm Bradbury "As lucid as glass and quite as sharp...[ Animal Farm ] has the double meaning, the sharp edge, and the lucidity of Swift." Atlantic Monthly "A wise, compassionate, and illuminating fable for our times." New York Times "Orwell has worked out his theme with a simplicity, a wit, and a dryness that are close to La Fontaine and Gay, and has written in a prose so plain and spare, so admirably proportioned to his purpose, that Animal Farm even seems very creditable if we compare it with Voltaire and Swift." Edmund Wilson, The New Yorker "Orwell's satire here is amply broad, cleverly conceived, and delightfully written." San Francisco Chronicle "The book for everyone and Everyman, its brightness undimmed after fifty years." Ruth Rendell With an Introduction by Julian Symons, " Animal Farm remains our great satire on the darker face of modern history."

Synopsis
75th Anniversary Edition--Includes a New Introduction by Téa Obreht George Orwell's timeless and timely allegorical novel--a scathing satire of a downtrodden society's blind march towards totalitarianism. "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 razor-edged fairy tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible. When Animal Farm was first published, Stalinist Russia was seen as its target. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, under whatever banner, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell's masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh. With a foreword by Ann Patchett, George Orwell's timeless fable--a parable for would-be liberators everywhere, glimpsed through the lens of our own history. As ferociously fresh as it was more than a half century ago, this remarkable allegory of a downtrodden society of overworked, mistreated animals, and their quest to create a paradise of progress, justice, and equality is one of the most scathing satires ever published. As we witness the rise and bloody fall of the revolutionary animals, we begin to recognize the seeds of totalitarianism in the most idealistic organization; and in our most charismatic leaders, the souls of our cruelest oppressors. With a foreword by Ann Patchett
