«Animal Farm» is George Orwell's satirical and dystopian novel, published by Penguin in paperback (112 pages, in English).
The animals of Mr Jones's farm rebel against their owner and create a community that promises equality and freedom. Under the leadership of the pigs Napoleon and Snowball, that idealistic revolution turns into a satire on the corruption of power, totalitarianism and manipulation, and the promise of equality becomes privilege.
Originally published in 1945, this 2008 edition is part of the Penguin Essentials collection (number 94) with cover by Shepard Fairey.
Suitable as school reading and for those approaching the classic dystopia.
