What is Animal Farm about?

When the animals of Manor Farm rebel against their cruel and careless owner, they dream of building a fairer world where every animal is equal. At first, their new society seems full of hope, but the pigs soon take control. As rules are changed, history is rewritten and fear spreads across the farm, the animals discover that power can corrupt even the noblest ideals. George Orwell’s sharp, thought-provoking fable explores propaganda, inequality, greed and the danger of unquestioned leadership.
