Animal Farm

About this book

The animals on a neglected farm drive out their owner and attempt to organise life on their own terms. Led by the pigs, they begin with an ideal of fairness and shared benefit. As their new society develops, the distance between its promises and its practices grows.

Some animals acquire privileges that others do not share. Orwell's fable follows the transformation of a rebellion through the ordinary work, rules and rivalries of the farm.
