Animal Farm is a novel by George Orwell that tells the story of a group of farm animals who rebel against their human farmer in order to create a society where the animals can live free from oppression. The novel is an allegory for the Russian Revolution of 1917 and the rise of the Soviet Union, and it explores themes of power, corruption, and the dangers of totalitarianism. The pigs, who represent the leaders of the Soviet Union, become increasingly corrupt and use propaganda, violence, and manipulation to maintain their control over the other animals. The novel serves as a warning about the dangers of blindly following those in power and the importance of standing up for what is right.
