Animal Farm by George Orwell

Animal Farm by George Orwell

The best way to explain why something is not good is to make a metaphor, right?

And that’s what, famed British author George Orwell did, with his classic Animal Farm, from 1945; that he wrote during the second world war. This classic of world literature, raises a very current issue, what happens when the established regime is overthrown to establish a new one by the old oppressed, creating a new stage with their own problems and their own social dystopias.

“Animal Farm” is a powerful allegory that exposes the dangers of totalitarianism and the corruption of power. It serves as a critique of the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin, highlighting how a revolution aimed at liberation can be perverted into a dictatorship. The novel raises important questions about the nature of power, propaganda, and the human capacity for oppression.
