A fresh iteration of Orwell's scathing critique of the Soviet Revolution, unveiled and annotated by his biographer, D.J. Taylor

Originally published in 1945, at the onset of the Allied forces divvying up the post-war world, Orwell's satirical take on the Soviet Revolution swiftly gained recognition as a timeless masterpiece of the Cold War era.

Set in the picturesque English countryside during the early 20th century, this novel revolves around a failed rebellion orchestrated by revolutionaries who, in their pursuit of change, inadvertently become the very embodiment of the very system they sought to dismantle.

This revised edition features an insightful introduction and comprehensive end-notes, accompanied by an appendix that encompasses original responses to the novel, as well as letters and documents from the historical context in which Animal Farm was penned.
