Animal Farm: A Fable In Two Acts

Satire by Eric Arthur Blair, George Orwell, Michael Walters

Blurb

Životinjska farma je satirična novela ili bajka Georgea Orwella koja govori o grupi životinja koji su osvojili farmu za sebe i uživali do jednog perioda otkad je počeo teror i patnja. Pisana je za vrijeme II. svjetskog rata, a izdana je 1945., no slavu je doživjela tek za vrijeme 1950-ih.
Knjiga ismijava sovjetski totalitaristički komunizam i Staljina. Orwell je bio ljevičar, koji je nakon događaja u Španjolskom građanskom ratu spoznao istinsko lice staljinizma. Međutim, u predgovoru Životinjskoj farmi kritizirao je stanje u Velikoj Britaniji, što je cenzurirano.

Doesnt make sense most of the time. Hard to follow along. Also, didn't interest me at all.

It is the most telling condemnation of a totalitarian state (like Soviet Russia then and perhaps now)
