Description & Specifications

All animals are equal - but some are more equal than others

When the oppressed animals of Manor Farm overthrow their master Mr. Jones and take over the farm themselves, they imagine it is the beginning of a life of freedom and equality. However, gradually, a cunning and ruthless elite among them, under the leadership of the pigs Napoleon and Snowball, begins to take control. Soon, the other animals discover that not all are as equal as they believed, and find themselves desperately trapped as one form of tyranny is replaced with another.

'It is the history of a revolution that went wrong - and the excellent excuses that emerged at every step for the perversion of the original doctrine,' Orwell wrote for the first edition of Animal Farm in 1945. Orwell wrote the novel in late 1943, but it almost remained unpublished; the fierce attack on Stalin, at that time a British ally, led the book to be rejected by publishers.

Orwell's simple, tragic allegory has since become a globally famous classic title.

This edition of Penguin Modern Classics includes an introduction by Malcolm Bradbury.
