Animal Farm

This parable is one of the most surprising and most influential works of 20th-century literature. It is very hard to find analogues in terms of the cumulative impact on readers and thinkers. After surviving accusations of being a pamphlet, and political satire of the Soviet system, today “Animal Farm” can become a desk book for both convinced social democrats and ultra-right patriots.

However, any political preferences are lost before the deep meaning of a story that refers the reader not so much to different foundations and superstructures, but to the very essence of human nature.

Interestingly, you can read this story several times, constantly finding new and new allusions and meanings in it.

And even if you don’t know who Benjamin’s donkey is referring to, you’re biased against the ban on consuming animal food with split hooves, and you think sheep are only good for fur linings — that doesn’t mean Orwell wrote for someone else.

Just follow the development of the plot — we promise it won’t leave you indifferent.
