Animal Farm
ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS
A farm is taken over by its overworked, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and stirring slogans, they set out to create a paradise of progress, justice, and equality. Thus the stage is set for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned -a razor-edged fairy tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible.
When Animal Farm was first published, Stalinist Russia was seen as its target. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, under whatever banner, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell's masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh.

George Orwell
**George Orwell**, de son vrai nom Eric Arthur Blair, est un écrivain et journaliste britannique né en 1903 en Inde et mort en 1950 à Londres. Figure majeure de la littérature engagée, il est surtout connu pour ses œuvres *1984* et *La Ferme des animaux*, deux critiques acerbes des régimes totalitaires et des dérives du pouvoir. Ancien fonctionnaire colonial en Birmanie, il a aussi vécu dans la précarité à Paris et Londres, expériences qui ont nourri son engagement en faveur des plus démunis et son rejet des injustices sociales. Son style clair et son sens aigu de l’observation politique font de lui un auteur incontournable du XXe siècle.
