A reissue of a cautionary tale in which the animals of Manor Farm oust their human masters and take control of their own lives, but the initial idealism of the creatures soon gives way to human-like power struggles and tyranny. From the author of NINETEEN EIGHTY-FOUR and DOWN AND OUT IN PARIS AND LONDON.

George Orwell, real name Eric Blair, was born in 1903 in Bengal. He served with the Indian Imperial Police, and later came to Europe, doing a series of ill-paid jobs which led to his writing Down and Out in Paris and London. He fought in the Spanish Civil War for the Republicans, but in later years became disillusioned with the aims of Communism, which led to the writing of his two most famous political satires Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty Four, which were immensely popular. He died in 1950.
