When the animals of Manor Farm rise against their human master, they dream of freedom, equality, and a life where all share in the farm's prosperity. At first, their revolution seems successful, but as the pigs take control, the vision of a fair society begins to unravel. Napoleon, a cunning and ruthless leader, twists the ideals of the rebellion to serve his own ambitions. What began as hope turns into fear, as the animals discover that tyranny can wear many faces and that the greatest threats often come from within. Published in 1945, Animal Farm is George Orwell's searing allegory of the Russian Revolution and the corruption that followed. By exposing how noble ideals can be manipulated through propaganda and fear, Orwell revealed the ease with which equality can devolve into oppression. Its sharp critique of power, betrayal, and political manipulation remains timeless, making it one of the most enduring works of modern literature.

Author Information

George Orwell, born Eric Arthur Blair in 1903, was a British author and journalist known for his sharp social criticism and advocacy for democratic socialism. Raised in India and England, Orwell's early experiences shaped his disdain for imperialism, which he later explored in his work Burmese Days. His time fighting in the Spanish Civil War solidified his opposition to totalitarian regimes, influencing much of his later writing.Orwell gained widespread recognition for his two most famous works, Animal Farm (1945) and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949). Both novels critique authoritarianism, with Animal Farm serving as a satirical allegory of the Russian Revolution, while Nineteen Eighty-Four explores a dystopian future ruled by oppressive surveillance and thought control. These works helped cement Orwell's legacy as a master of political satire and dystopian fiction.Throughout his career, Orwell's essays, critiques, and novels reflected his commitment to uncovering the social injustices of his time. His writing, characterized by clarity and intellectual rigor, remains influential, especially in discussions on the nature of power, freedom, and truth. Orwell passed away in 1950, but his works continue to shape political discourse and literary thought around the world.
