Animal farm

When Mr. Jones forgets to feed the animals on his farm, a – just – revolution is set in motion. Led by the pigs Snowball and Napoleon, the animals expel the owner and take control of the farm with the aim of ending terrible inequalities and establishing a new, fairer system of power that benefits those who work the hardest.

However, as time passes, the ideals that inspired the rebellion will be forgotten, perverted, and a new and unexpected form of tyranny ends up imposing itself on the lives of those animals. Initially published in 1945, Animal Farm, one of the most emblematic works of the 20th century, is a brilliant and devastating satire on the corruption of idealism by power.
