Rating: Summary: The Bolsheviks are pigs Review: Although he is very obviously anti-Stalinistic, Orwell doesn't mind voicing his own opinion on behalf of socialist reform. However, he brings readers to the realistic realization that even in a "classless" non-material society, the able intellectuals who crave power will take it. The novel has a je ne sais quoi innate power to it. I didn't put it down until I finished it (it's that short). (All credit for this review must be given to the honorable leader, comrade Napoleon)
Rating: Summary: Very good. Review: It goes throgh all the stages that communism does, only it's on a farm. Different groups ofpeople are represented by the different animals. It is very good.
Rating: Summary: A great book, a wonderful satire Review: this book did a wonderful job of showing how the russian communism really is. although it didn't show the original form of comunism, it just totally trashed the russian form of government at that time. i think it did a wonderful job at this. the poor excuse for an attempt at communism needed to be shown as it really was to the whole world. and this book did just that. so if you haven't read it you should, it's a hell of a book.
Rating: Summary: This book is really good! Review: I read this book in my 7th grade Honors Reading class, and we as a whole didn't understand it.
Rating: Summary: El Crapo! Very Stinky minus the extra spicy dorritos!!!! Review: Dumb. I understood it and it was a brown poo of a book. C'mon people in the tomato sauce hut living next the bakery on the corner of Fifth and Brown, this stunk. It's message was a triple poo on a sacle three poo's: on poo being the first worst and three being the worst!!!!!!! No PIZZAZZ, like a stale Cheez-it that has already been chewed up and spit out, then left to dry on a pile of three brown poo's!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: GREAT BOOK Review: This was my all time favorite book. Although some I know who have read it found it frightening, I found it to be rather satirical and amusing. I encourage any person fascinated in the Bolshevik Revolution to read this book. It is so funny how these animals seek a Communist Utopian type society. Great book!
Rating: Summary: An excellent book Review: a twisted look at communism through animals....very simple, but the metaphors are odd...very disturbing and frightening, but wonderful to read...I recommend "1984" by George Orwell if you enjoyed this book!
Rating: Summary: Don't trust nobody, not even your closest friend. Review: Animal is probably the greatest book I've ever read. The characters in the book are as cruel and evil as the people in our government. Many of the characters remind me of certain government figures in the U.S. This book gives a perfect example of what our government is like. If you understand this book, you will understand how our government was somewhat started. George Orwell get's eight thumbs up for creating a story for us that is so real in different ways. If you've never read Animal Farm by George Orwell, I very strongly suggest you do.
Rating: Summary: Animal Farm Review: I LOVE THIS BOOK! A child like fable about a farm, yet it still holds the power of politcal uprising.
Rating: Summary: Personally the best book that has since been written. Review: This book is my all time favorite book. There is nothing like it and there never will be. Geore Orwell knew what the future held and at a time where people kept to themselves and trully feared the goverment, George said all he could.
