Animal Farm, published in 1945 by George Orwell, is a satirical novella that serves as an allegorical critique of the Russian Revolution of 1917 and the subsequent rise of Stalinism, using a seemingly simple tale of barnyard animals who overthrow their human farmer to establish a society based on equality, only to see it devolve into a new form of tyranny under the pigs’ leadership; inspired by Orwell’s observations of totalitarian regimes and his disillusionment with Soviet communism, the story distills complex political betrayal, propaganda, and corruption into a concise fable that warns against the perversion of revolutionary ideals, remaining a timeless commentary on power dynamics in any system.
