This is not a book for an escape into a pleasant fantasy. You may say the book is not realistic, but you will have an emotional reaction to the title years after you have read it.

I only meant to start listening to this today as I ran around and did errands.
Instead I listened at Costco, the grocery store, the gym and finished as I puttered around putting things away and doing laundry. I couldn’t stop!
What brilliant social commentary; Orwell is a genius!

Everyone should read this book, its a classic and it’s necessary. You won’t forget it. It is as horrifying as 1984.

A group of mistreated animals conspire to wrestle a farm from the grip of a drunken and malicious farmer. But all does not remain well inside the new utopian community once he’s gone. There are rumours of spies and mutinies, and a slowly dawning realisation within the less intelligent creatures that something at Animal Farm is not quite right. …

A short, scathing satire sure to make the reader paw through the story again to review all the elements presented.

This was my third reading of this book. It amazes how this man’s mind works in the way things are happening today that he wrote about in 1984. If you have never read this book you need to treat yourself to a good story. If you have read this book you need to treat yourself, all over again, to a good story!

One of the best books I’ve read. It ranks up there close to The Lord of the Rings, Asimov’s Foundatuion Trilogy, etc. And, It is just a cut below Joyce’s Ulysses and Pynchon’s Gravity’s Rainbow. One of the very best.

This book paralleled Russia under the communist party, and what happened when Stalin took control. The book was well written, however not in the genera that I enjoy reading. Brilliant for those who dare.
