Summary: Orwell not an anti-socialist!
Review: I walked away from both "1984" and "Animal Farm" a bit depressed, but always with a new perspective on things. Its about the sharpest attack on Communism, the Russian revolution, and the Totalitarian idea I've ever seen.....written by a man who was himself a Socialist! Don't forget Orwell was not against Socialism itself, but the direction greedy dictators like Joseph Stalin (or should I say Napoleon the pig?) were taking it. This is the ultimate story of the betrayed revolution, and a very good book that you can finish in one sitting. I highly recommend it.

Summary: this is a book with a higher meaning
Review: It's a story about animals who take over a farm, yet Orwell is really exposing the hypocracy of Socialism/Communism. When you read this book, you understand how socialist programs will fail everytime. His book is true prophecy of the downfall of Soviet Communism. This is a book that stays with you and helps you relate to modern day political struggles. IF YOU LIKE THIS BOOK THEN READ "1984"!!! It pushes beyond "Animal Farm" and demonstrates the true horror of a socialist society.

Summary: my personal top 10
Review: probably the most enlightening 90 minutes you will ever spend...the world will definitely look different after reading this book. intended by orwell to be anti-communist satire, i think just about every episode is equally fitting to anti-communist usa.

Summary: It was pretty good
Review: I was assigned this book by my literature teacher about a week ago and finished it a while ago. It was pretty good and in no parts was it boring or off subject. The only thing I have to say about this is that the ending could have been a bit better. It was good but ould have been a little bit better.

Summary: This is a book everyone should read!
Review: I had seen the movie, heard many book talks, and discussions in English and History both. So when I found out I had to read it I wasn't too anxious to read the book. Once I started reading, I couldn't stop. The concept of it is really frightening. The laws kept being changed to fit the pigs desires. The drastic changes at the beginning were accepted and Animal Farm was much better than the original Manor Farm. Animal Farm gradually kept getting worse. The ample food turned into crumbs. The name Manor Farm was changed back. The farm turns out much worse than it ever started with, but the animals supported the pigs and they couldn't remember their way of life with the farmer. The animals representing the actual Russian Revolution makes it even more interesting and frightening. I recommend this book to everyone. It is simple to read so anyone can read it. However, it has mature themes, that really make you think.

Summary: Vivid storytelling and deep understanding of human nature
Review: I first read the book in 1992, my second year in college in central China, and in 1995, I had a book of my own and read it again and again. Now I have finished translating it into Chinese, wistfully looking for a publisher.I believe an interesting book like Aniaml Farm will surely have its Chinese edition around China one day. I still have some questions need to know about some details about the exact translation such as Crown Derby (?). Anyone would like to help or discuss with me, please contact me by email.
