Interesting read at a good price!
Orwell’s *Animal Farm* is one of those books that everyone should read at least once. It’s short, powerful, and incredibly relevant, no matter when you pick it up. The way it portrays power, corruption, and manipulation is just brilliant. Even though it’s written as a simple story about farm animals, the deeper meaning hits hard.✔️ Good paper quality, feels nice to hold✔️ Sharp and clear print, easy to read✔️ Well-bound, no loose pages or fading textOverall, a great purchase for anyone who loves classics or wants to revisit this masterpiece!

A masterpiece that is still relevant!
From "All animals are equal" to “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.” AND From “Four legs good, two legs bad!” to “Four legs good, two legs better!”, Animal Farm happens.Manor Farm is owned by a drunkard man Mr Jones. On this farm, animals work hard, but they get treated badly and get less food. One fine day, the old major, an older pig, enkindle all the animals with the realisation that they are being treated badly and they deserve better. He also tells them about his dream that he had, in which he saw all the animals be happy, well-fed & well treated. He urges all the animals to work on this and turn this dream into reality. The old major dies soon, but he leaves behind his philosophy of animalism. They start to set up a rebellion against Mr Jones, their owner. Two senior pigs Snowball & Napoleon take up the responsibility to lead this movement. In the same span, drunkard Jones forgets to give food to the animals and because animals are already in the revolutionary mode, to chase off the Jones and his men from the farm. Once they are gone, animals rename Manor Farm to Animal Farm and set up Seven Commandments of Animalism. That’s how it all begins. The policies, rules, the hierarchies ( unintentionally, apparently) are set up. However, after some days, there comes the unfairness. Some animals start to get larger shares of every good thing, the rules start changing, and all the animals start questioning all the agenda of animalism. There comes a time when ‘'The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and man to pig, and from pig to man again, but already it was impossible to say which was which.'’I think this book is a masterpiece by George Orwell without a doubt. What a brilliant description of the different sides of revolution and the relevance to even today’s times is so uncanny. ( I shouldn’t use that word) . Even though it gives a socio-political message, the book has no age barrier, to be honest. Even teenagers could read and easily get the message. The writing is brilliant. The best part of this book is the characters and every minute behavarioul details. The only thing that didn’t click well with me is, I found it a little monotonous in the middle of the book for a short span, but it takes some interesting turns. Anyways, I highly recommend this short, wise and interesting read.

#AnimalFarm is no doubt a masterpiece written to make sense to millennials until our race will thrive in the socio-political culture. Though the text holds its inspiration from communist movement in Russia. It holds its place perfectly for the world politics or even indian politics.P.S- Your level of IQ decides the real depth of the book.This is a kind of book should be taught in all school curriculum to create more intellectuals and less sheeps. (Sheeps are animals from the book who follow instructions and keep shouting things without realizing its implications.) _______________________#Strengths-1.Satire of whole human political pshyce, ambitions, deciet on everything there's a satire which enlightens you as a social sufferer and brings a gush of smile.2.Analogy- It is really beautiful and thought provoking to read and relate the spirit animals of politicians as pigs.Blind followers of government as sheeps.Hardworking individuals who only dream and work for a better world to Boxer the horse.Sly and cunning wolves and many more in the row.(Describing more will only damp your part of enjoyment packed in this novella.) 3.Plot- Its just a viscious cycle of any revolution that ever took place or ever going to occur.#TargetReaders- I recommend this to be in every indian school and college bags. It will really contribute in shaping the young minds as more skeptical thinkers and to not get decieved by speeches and fake promises.Sociology and Art stream students, Individuals interested in Politics, for them it's a must read.#TargetAge readers- Every young adult should read it even if they have read this in childhood, because may be at that age they couldn't realize the hidden aspect of this book.#WritingStyle is very simple since the author is a British and indian form is english is derived from there, no one will feel difficult at any moment in the book.Flow is lucid and instances are well spaced so you won't feel like reading the book in many breaks.#Genre- Satiarical fiction, all other politics themed books i have read are either fiction or based on true events and testimonials. This is so very different on this theme.Rating- 5/5 for sure!
