Rezension

Animal Farm remains our great satire on the darker face of modern history. Malcolm Bradbury

As lucid as glass and quite as sharp [Animal Farm] has the double meaning, the sharp edge, and the lucidity of Swift. Atlantic Monthly

A wise, compassionate, and illuminating fable for our times. The New York Times

Orwell has worked out his theme with a simplicity, a wit, and a dryness that are close to La Fontaine and Gay, and has written in a prose so plain and spare, so admirably proportioned to his purpose, that Animal Farm even seems very creditable if we compare it with Voltaire and Swift. Edmund Wilson, The New Yorker

Orwell s satire here is amply broad, cleverly conceived, and delightfully written. San Francisco Chronicle

The book for everyone and Everyman, its brightness undimmed after fifty years. Ruth Rendell

    wow

    What a great book! I am not sure what I was expecting from it, but it wasn't this greatness! The amount of times I was left with goosebumps and a fast heartbeat...I find it clever how the author created a comparison to political themes in the past. And the ending.. wow.

    Marvellous.

    Absolutely beautiful way of showing politics in a book which seems like a fairytale. All the little details that refer to Soviet Union (the horn and a hoof like a hammer and a sickle). I read this book outloud for my mother and translated it to her (we are from Ukraine) and she told me that many things that are mentioned in 1984 were real in the Soviet Union. I can't even imagine how horrible it was.

    Absolutely beautiful edition and great read

    I read through this book in a day. It's super short but shows how the masses are susceptible to one small manipulations at a time through the abstract animal characters. I'd definitely recommended this book to everyone!

    Frighteningly modern!

    There is a reason that some books stick around forever and others (like Obamas musings) fade into obscurity. They all share the same characteristic - timelessness. This work is as relevant today as it was in the 1940's. Its a scathing portrayal of human nature and stupidity, using great visual references, that are easy to grasp even for the less imaginative. A must read for EVERYONE!
