Animal Farm

by George Orwell

A devastating allegorical novella where farm animals overthrow their human master, only to see their revolution corrupted by power-hungry pigs. Orwell's razor-sharp satire of totalitarianism remains one of the 20th century's most prescient political fables. What begins as hopeful liberation descends into a chilling cycle of oppression, proving that tyranny can wear many faces.
