About this listen

‘All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.’

First published in 1945 and widely considered one of Orwell’s most esteemed works, Animal Farm is a political satire for the ages.

The animals of Manor Farm are in the midst of a revolution. Overworked and mistreated, they overthrow their dictator leader, Mr Jones, and swear upon new, idealist values to live by – ones of progress, justice and equality. However, as some animals attempt to take control of the farm despite their promises, it transpires that revolution isn’t as simple as it seems.

An allegory on totalitarian regimes and inspired by the events of the 1917 Russian Revolution, Animal Farm was banned in the Eastern bloc. It remains one of the great political works of the twentieth century. This edition is expertly read by Leighton Pugh.

George Orwell is the pen name of Eric Arthur Blair (1903 – 1950). He was a British novelist, essayist, poet and critic, most famous for his novels Animal Farm and 1984. Often regarded of one of the fiercest social and political commentators of his day, his works have been studied and read through generations.
