1946 Animal Farm 1^st ed George Orwell Bolshevik Revolution Dystopian Socialism

“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”

― George Orwell, Animal Farm

George Orwell’s ‘Animal Farm’ is perhaps the most important and recognized dystopia novel in the English language. First printed in 1945, this satirical book covers the events leading to the Stalin rule in Russia before World War II. On the surface, this book appears to simply be a story about animals coexisting on a farm together, however, Orwell’s views on socialism are abundantly apparent as he is critical of Stalinism and the Spanish Civil War. Time Magazine has called it one of the 100 best English-language books, and according to Stringer, this book is

“A political fable that partly recounts, in an allegorical mode, the aftermath of the Russian revolution, and partly illustrates a belief in the universal tendency of power to corrupt” (Stringer 22)
