Description
1946 Animal Farm George Orwell Bolshevik Revolution Dystopian Socialism Stalin



“Animal Farm” is a renowned satirical novella written by George Orwell. Its a dystopian allegory reflecting events leading up to the Russian Revolution of 1917 and the subsequent Stalinist era of the Soviet Union. The story is set in Manor Farm where the animals revolt against their human farmer, hoping to create a society where they can be equal, free, and happy. However, their leaders, the pigs, become corrupt, and the farm ends up being in a worse situation than before the rebellion. The novel uses a seemingly simple tale of barnyard animals to critique the devastating consequences of totalitarianism, corruption, and power misuse. Orwells narrative serves as a critique of power dynamics, totalitarianism, and the dangers of propaganda, reflecting his own disapproval of Stalinism and the betrayals of the Spanish Civil War. When first published, the novella encountered early rejections due to its politically sensitive content but gained immense popularity as global politics progressed into the Cold War era.
