Animal Farm

Animal farm
Bok av George Orwell
"It is the history of a revolution that went wrong - and of the excellent excuses that were forthcoming at every step for the perversion of the original doctrine". So wrote George Orwell in the original blurb for the first edition of Animal Farm in 1945. His simple and tragic fable, describes what happens when the animals drive out Mr Jones, the farmer, and attempt to run the Manor Farm themselves. Animal Farm has become a world-famous classic of English prose, and is a strong political allegory with parallels to the old Soviet regime. Reader Simon Callow is a British actor with a firmly-established reputation for impeccable performance on-stage, on-screen, and on audiobook.
Så fascinerande och bra. Det är precis som i samhället egentligen, med diktaturer eller till och med bara med rangordning av människor i hierarkier. Bra, aktuell bok.
En klassiker som alla bör läsa!
Djuren på gården blir misskötta av människor, så de gör uppror och tar själva över styret. Med grisarna i ledningen skapar de ett eget litet samhälle, men ju längre tiden går desto mer diktatorisk blir ledaren...
