Summary

George Orwell （1903-1950） – angielski pisarz， dziennikarz， uczestnik wojny hiszpańskiej po stronie republikańskiej （swoje doświadczenia z tych czasów opisał w doskonałej reporterskiej ale i głęboko socjologiczno-filozoficznej książce W hołdzie Katalonii）， socjalista z przekonań， ale zarazem radykalny przeciwnik systemów totalitarnych。 Uznawany za twórcę najwybitniejszej dystopii XX wieku – 1984。

Najważniejszą （oprócz 1984） i chyba najsłynniejszą książką Orwella jest Folwark zwierzęcy。 Napisany w formie ezopowej bajki jest genialnym ostrzeżeniem przed każdym totalitaryzmem， który początkowo wywodząc się ze szlachetnych ideałów， wkrótce zmienia się w swoje przeciwieństwo – ponurą， krwawą dyktaturę， zmieniającą znaczenie pojęć， słów。 I choć autor napisał tę książkę jako alegorię rozwoju stalinizmu czy szerzej rewolucji i systemu komunistycznego w Rosji Sowieckiej pozostaje jednak Folwark zwierzęcy zawsze aktualnym ostrzeżeniem przed różnego rodzaju dyktaturami。

Musicie kupić tę książkę， bo może już niedługo – jak za czasów PRL – będzie zakazana！

Hoy he leído esta joyita， uno de esos libros de los que has oído hablar siempre pero que no te habías animado a coger y hoy he devorado en un momento。 Me lo han regalado y no puedo estar más agradecida。 ¡Cómo lo he disfrutado！No me gusta contar mucho para que la gente se sorprenda y lea el libro sin ideas preconcebidas。 Parece mentira que haya libros que habiéndose escrito hace años se mantengan de actualidad y este además está escrito de una forma tan simple y ligera que es un placer。 Me he reí Hoy he leído esta joyita， uno de esos libros de los que has oído hablar siempre pero que no te habías animado a coger y hoy he devorado en un momento。 Me lo han regalado y no puedo estar más agradecida。 ¡Cómo lo he disfrutado！No me gusta contar mucho para que la gente se sorprenda y lea el libro sin ideas preconcebidas。 Parece mentira que haya libros que habiéndose escrito hace años se mantengan de actualidad y este además está escrito de una forma tan simple y ligera que es un placer。 Me he reído mucho y a la vez no he podido evitar sentirme enfadada por como el ser humano （aquí genialmente representado por animales） es capaz de lo mejor pero muchas muchas veces solo saca lo peor。。。 Creo que el libro critica a la clase política y a los autoritarismos pero de igual forma a la sociedad。 Orwell se lució 。。。more

I had to read this book for school。 I went into it with VERY low expectations， thinking it would be another summer reading book where I need to analyze the color of the main character’s shirt。 It was not that。 The way Napoleon so masterfully tricks the animals is so evil and malicious， it’s terrifying。 The last line so perfectly summed up the entire book and seriously shook me to my core。 I might need therapy after this。Benjamin was probably my favorite character。 I do think there were a lot of I had to read this book for school。 I went into it with VERY low expectations， thinking it would be another summer reading book where I need to analyze the color of the main character’s shirt。 It was not that。 The way Napoleon so masterfully tricks the animals is so evil and malicious， it’s terrifying。 The last line so perfectly summed up the entire book and seriously shook me to my core。 I might need therapy after this。Benjamin was probably my favorite character。 I do think there were a lot of characters， but that was probably my only complaint with this book。 Definitely not something I would pick up on my own， but I am so glad I read this。 Overall？ 4。5 stars。 。。。more

despite your political standing， i think it’s a very interesting read nevertheless

I both love and hate this book。 It’s so disturbing and makes my skin crawl。 But that’s the power of it。 It evokes a physical response。

An incredible， and concise， metaphor of what we can and cannot achieve as a species。

The foreword by Théa Obrecht was shoddy， sliding too much into specific modern politics for my taste。 I definitely enjoyed her recounting of life in Yugoslavia。 The afterword was just lacking in substance。The book itself is excellent。 It is far better a read than 1984， and its antisoviet criticism is， although obscured behind masks of pigs and sheep and horses， very well worded and structured。 It is obvious that Napoleon and Snowball are parallels to Stalin and Trotsky， and even the latter's esc The foreword by Théa Obrecht was shoddy， sliding too much into specific modern politics for my taste。 I definitely enjoyed her recounting of life in Yugoslavia。 The afterword was just lacking in substance。The book itself is excellent。 It is far better a read than 1984， and its antisoviet criticism is， although obscured behind masks of pigs and sheep and horses， very well worded and structured。 It is obvious that Napoleon and Snowball are parallels to Stalin and Trotsky， and even the latter's escape is mirroring real life events。The only thing that irked me is that the book portrays Snowball's plans as being glorious， when in reality Trotsky agreed with many of Stalin's ideas， and would have probably been just as bad had he won the power struggle。At some points in the book you can even see what would eventually become core ideas in 1984， such as the steady altering of the commandments and denying the animals' memories。I especially liked the part where the communists were pigs and sows。 It's only fitting。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 Wow。 It was an easy read due to how well written it was and the meaning was so driven through the story as you slowly watched the pigs turn more and more evil; more and more into humans。 Gonna be thinking about this book for many more years to come I reckon。 go read it right now。

Sarah ，

This book was one that I found difficult to get into at first， it’s writing seemed like it needed to tell you every single detail， as if you could not come to your own realizations。Other than that， I throughly enjoyed the story。 It had me hooked。

Isabel ，

Great classic easy read， and has good underlying meaning。

Kaiky Cintra ，

It's a well-crafted and emotional allegory， but I wouldn't give it much more merit。If you want to understand the history of how the soviet union failed the socialist dream， this isn't the book to read。If you want to read good satire， there are better books out there。If you want a good fable， this barely classifies as one。So why did I rate it 4 stars？Well， this is the only book I know that meshes all of these things together and still rocks a good story， characters， and criticism。 It's definitely It's a well-crafted and emotional allegory， but I wouldn't give it much more merit。If you want to understand the history of how the soviet union failed the socialist dream， this isn't the book to read。If you want to read good satire， there are better books out there。If you want a good fable， this barely classifies as one。So why did I rate it 4 stars？Well， this is the only book I know that meshes all of these things together and still rocks a good story， characters， and criticism。 It's definitely a unique and solid work of literature。 。。。more

Una historia escrita entre 1943 y 1944 pero que es tan actual。 De esta edición me gusta el análisis que hay al final。

As I watched my Goodreads challenge slipping between my fingertips， I devised a desperate but genius three-point plan to quickly add an entry while still appeasing the integrity gods。 To do so， my next chosen book had to meet the following measures:1。 I must not have read it。2。 It must be a certified classic。3。 It must sit under 100 pages。Armed with these strict parameters， it took roughly half a minute of searching before Animal Farm tumbled into my crosshairs， and the world collapsed into irre As I watched my Goodreads challenge slipping between my fingertips， I devised a desperate but genius three-point plan to quickly add an entry while still appeasing the integrity gods。 To do so， my next chosen book had to meet the following measures:1。 I must not have read it。2。 It must be a certified classic。3。 It must sit under 100 pages。Armed with these strict parameters， it took roughly half a minute of searching before Animal Farm tumbled into my crosshairs， and the world collapsed into irrelevance around it。 However， this blessed criteria fast fell into its curse。 Due to Animal Farm's unlimited commercial appeal， my edition came stuffed with fluff， including an introduction almost as lengthy as the story， while irrelevant short fictions from unrelated authors were rudely stacked at the end。 I guiltlessly skipped all of that。 But worse is the daunting assignment of reviewing a book with such an impossibly praised legacy。 Everyone has already analysed these texts to molecular detail beyond even the smarts of Orwell himself， so much so that I do not have the confidence to do this job justice。 I mostly feel shame for my lateness and wish to apologise。 I'm sorry。 But what I am comfortable stating is this: 1984 is my favourite novel ever written， and I am delighted to place Animal Farm on an equally terrifying shelf。 Russian revolution allegories aside， it's the simplification of political manipulation where the genuine horror lies。 I applaud Orwell's ability to author tales frightening enough to disturb any adult into nightmares yet are so effortlessly digestible that a child could grasp their warnings。 Hence， I consider both Animal Farm and 1984 as essential reading for each person on the planet， especially our youth。 As long as books like this sustain their vibrations in global consciousness， our eyes remain on the ball。 When books like this are banned， that is the moment we have to charge at the red flags as if bulls fighting for our lives。In the end， Orwell is not history's most skilful writer。 But that is hardly an issue。 For while I've read plenty of superior wordsmiths， I have never read better stories than what this man has gifted us。 His achievements in regard to concepts， relevance， and cultural importance are untouched， and Animal Farm is him at his utmost best。 Consequently， I don't dare rate this book lower than full marks because if someone does， who the fuck do they think they are？ 。。。more

Rija Zaidi ，

intelligently written， this book tells the evolvement of mankind from the beginning of time but with a twist。 it shows how power makes one evil， history can be distorted to suit the leader’s vision， and how illiteracy of individuals can be used to exploit them。 the character of boxer is of an overly exploited individual who believes that good can be achieved by overworking， a thought that the lower class’ brains are often instilled with。 this book is just too good。 i couldn’t help but gasp at ce intelligently written， this book tells the evolvement of mankind from the beginning of time but with a twist。 it shows how power makes one evil， history can be distorted to suit the leader’s vision， and how illiteracy of individuals can be used to exploit them。 the character of boxer is of an overly exploited individual who believes that good can be achieved by overworking， a thought that the lower class’ brains are often instilled with。 this book is just too good。 i couldn’t help but gasp at certain scenes and was horrified at some points。 the connection to our real world is incredible and the fact that it was written in 1945 and remains relevant to this date is terrifying。 i don’t think i have read a better book so far this year。 。。。more

A classic。 Unfortunately， it reminds me of ‘right now。’ And before。

It was intriguing and a charming metaphor！ I loved this classic！

Vital for anyone studying government and history， especially totalitarian societies。

Perfect。 Can’t believe I haven’t read till adulthood but worth reading with a mature perspective。
