About this listen
"All animals are equal. But some animals are more equal than others."
Animal Farm - the history of a revolution that went wrong - is George Orwell's brilliant satire on the corrupting influence of power. Mr Jones of Manor Farm is so lazy and drunken that one day he forgets to feed his livestock. The ensuing rebellion under the leadership of the pigs Napoleon and Snowball leads to the animals taking over the farm. Vowing to eliminate the terrible inequities of the farmyard, the renamed Animal Farm is organised to benefit all who walk on four legs. But as time passes, the ideals of the rebellion are corrupted, then forgotten. And something new and unexpected emerges....
Tamsin Greig, Nicky Henson, and Toby Jones star in this new drama, part of BBC Radio 4's The Real George Orwell season - a Radio 4 journey that explores the disjuncture between the man who was Eric Blair and the writer who was George Orwell.

Insightful and scary at the same time.
Its so scary to know that in the search for liberation we can easily be brainwashed. Personally, the part that hurt and scares me the most is the new generation born into this lifestyle thinking its the norm.

Fabulous take of an old classic
I had never read the book and I finally purchased this and got through it in one sitting. I loved the characters and I loved how the actors presented the storyline. It led me to take on further analysis of the story. I did not have a great awareness of the Russian Revolution and this story provides a taster to understanding it. Having read Brave New World in High School and now this, my next Orwell is 1984.
