About this listen

Animal Farm, one of the great social satires of our century, is based upon modern Eastern European history. First published in 1945, it is the classic fable of the utopian dream and the corruptive influences of power. When the animals at Manor Farm revolt against their master, Mr. Jones, their goal is to take over the farm and establish an ideal community based on hard work, honesty, and the equality of all animals. Guided by the memory of Old Major's utopian vision and the seven commandments, Animal Farm, as the animals have renamed it, briefly fulfills the ideal. Memories are short, however, and soon - through manipulation and aggression by those who assume power - the farm's founding principles are slowly eroded and abolished.

Decades after its debut, Animal Farm is still a relevant and powerful tale of how blind allegiance to political leaders leads to ruin.

An interesting story

It’s indeed an interesting story about a farm where the animals taking over the control of the farm. It’s a nice short read which only takes few hours. This story talks about the political aspect of the far, how power turn people to hatred, and changed. It’s a very creative story and the plot is brilliant.
