"As I just finished reading the novella, I found myself incredibly wearing an air of extreme excitement!! And I couldn't help it but to run towards the computer to write a review about it!

Animal Farm is one of the most spectacular literary works of all the time, not only during the 20th century. However, in order to get it right and enjoy its brilliance, you ought to go back in time and look at the conditions and events where this stunning novella was born. Orwell's novella is about a group of animals who live in a farm called "Manor Farm", owned by their master, Jones. The animals grow enthusiastic to get their freedom, and be the masters of themselves. They seek nothing but breaking away from tyranny, enjoy equality and fair living that have been demonstrated to be achieved by one way only; Jones's and all other human race's expulsion. Eventually, the rebellion, of the animals, succeeds. Nonetheless, things turn to be worse than before. Those animals who promised for freedom, dignity and better living turned to be as cruel as the humans they once hated- or even worse!

In my opinion, this story can be read in two different levels. The first one is the real purpose and motive of the author in which he wrote this novella. It was a sharp criticism of Stalin's and his government corruption rather than criticism of communism-as a system- as some may think. Tyranny of the Leader, corruption of government and absolute ignorance of people, were the fundamental blocks, I believe, in which Orwell built his novella upon. The kind of symbolism used and the way of description draw clearly a political allusion. In addition to this, the nature of the characters and the way they were depicted can tell you a great deal about the author's main purpose. For instance, you would know the dogs, in the novella, represent police, military or something like that! Also Squealer he would clearly be seen something like a Minister or so!

On the other level, one may look at the whole thing with totally different view; human beings, their nature and various innate desires. What may authority, power and control change in humans? How could they alter their beliefs and principles? And how harsh life would treat those who are powerless? Submission or rebellion? Many questions may arise while you read this book .......... despite its simplicity!
Definitely one of the greatest books ever!"

"Filled with a plethora of subliminal meanings, this book will have you thinking. Picture the farm as a region ruled by the farmer; the animals are the population and each have different political views. Some take on democracy while some take on tyranny. Enjoy the revolution."

By Caylee, Virgin Islands, U.S.

"I would rate Animal Farm as one of my favotite books. It has a bigger story in the acual one. It describes good and bad things on making a community while still portaying a child-like story. Using pigs as dictators, Animal Farm can describe how trying to make civilization would get out of hand. Also, on how to make one work for example, everyone must help get started and stick together. Animal Farm has a lot to do with equality and the idea of being fair to everyone almost like communism. Later, more inteligent animals change the rules around just like in a society leaded by a dictator. There is always someone who is going to want more and be able to bend the rules for it. I enjoyed George Orwells idea of haveing the problem take place with animals instead of people. I felt it was easier to understand the main idea and plot but, also made it more intresting. He also presents problems that could be solved with some simple solutions that may relate to ones humans have. His style of writing lets us see how we can fix or not instigate problems with trying to start a club or even help out a community."
