In my family,everybody read books, my mother a compulsive journalist, who read like 4 book each week. My sister, a literature student... And my father, just a good reader.
This book twist my mind, a metaphor for society, represented in animals. The ideas of revolution, freedom, power and corruption are faithfully worked by pigs, dogs, sheeps, chickens,
This allegorical novell, written by George Orwell, was publish in 1945. In times of Cold War and soviet union command by Stalin. The novell was a critic to Stalin. But when I read this book, I thought, this is a critic to the actual society by many ways.
These are somes rules, that animals began to use in the beginning of the revolution.
- Whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy.
- Whatever goes upon four legs, or has wings, is a friend.
- No animal shall wear clothes.
- No animal shall sleep in a bed.
- No animal shall drink alcohol.
- No animal shall kill any other animal.
- All animals are equal.
Now, those seven rules transform into this three rules, after the pig take the command.
1. No animal shall sleep in a bed with sheets.
2. No animal shall drink alcohol to excess.
3. No animal shall kill any other animal without cause.
Now an Amazon review.
