Summary: One of the best books this century
Review: In Animal Farm, Orwell illustrates that the "classless" "utopian" society that marxist communism attempts to setup is unacheivable. It demonstrates human natures want and need of power. Using pigs as the leaders of the communist government that was setup was a nice touch of symbolism. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: This Book was a wonderful story about Talking animals.
Review: this book was an exellent example of how I think that animals would run the world if they were in control. Although this book seems strange to many people, talking animals have intrigued many childeren and adults. I think that George Orwell expresses many of his political veiws through the animals. I suggest that you read this book to see the excellent writting style used my Orwell.

Summary: Emotionally powerful
Review: What most people don't seem have said in their reviews of this book is just how strongly Orwell makes you feel about the animal's situation. At many points, such as when Boxer is taken away, you feel yourself wishing the animals would realize what is being done to them. Like in Orwell's non-fiction books its through his objective, journalistic approach that you emphasis with the characters. Its this emotional power that makes the book great and not because it is a satire about the Russian Revolution. I would strongly recommend that anyone who did enjoy Animal Farm, try to read some of Orwell's earlier books, like "Coming Up For Air" and "Down and Out In Paris and London". AND I think its very unfair to start burdening Socialism with some of Communism's flaws.

Summary: Great novel about the dangers of Communism.
Review: With its bizzare illustrations, this version of George Orwell's immortal classic is a true delight and a thought provoker. Animal Farm is one of the greatest George Orwell books, next to 1984, that I have read.
Rating: 
Summary: It all depends on watch you're looking for.
Review: It's a good book, but not for a plot. If you're looking for an interesting illustration on the Rusian Revolution, it's pretty good. If you're looking for entertaining literature, I'd keep looking.

Summary: G. Orwell's masterpiece accuratly portrays totilitarianism.
Review: Animal Farm, written by George Orwell (the pen name of Eric Blair) is the story of a group of over-worked, under-nourished farm animals who revolt against their drunkard farmer and set up what starts as a paradise of fairness, justice and, above all, equality - that is, until feuding pigs degrade it into a totalitarian dictatorship worse than the conditions the animals suffered before the revolt. Written in a simple manner, Orwell unfolds an amazingly realistic and well thought-out tale wrought with depth and vividness that makes this book very hard to put down. As the reader witnesses the evolution of the leaders of Animal Farm from seemingly well-meaning leaders to manipulative, malignant beasts, the truth and evident prophecies of the tale come forth. George Orwell's masterpiece accurately portrays the enslavement, morals, leaders, and lies which are a horrible part of totalitarianism.

Summary: I READ IT AND WILL REMEMBER IT FOREVER!
Review: When I first read 'Animal Farm' I fell in love with the workhorse named Boxer. To me he was the main focas in the stro, but when he was sold to the glue factory, I was crushed. I cried and cried. When I saw the TNT version of the moive I still cried at the part were Boxer was loaded up into the van. Ever since then my life has changed at the way I look at work horses. If I were there I'd have saved Boxer, But it would never come true. Now I plan to do something about horses that are sent to the glue factory after the worked so hard, after all...they deserve better then a death so horrible.
