Beschreibung

This edition features George Orwell's best known novels - 1984 and Animal Farm - with an introduction by Christopher Hitchens. In 1984, London is a grim city where Big Brother is always watching you and the Thought Police can practically read your mind. Winston Smith joins a secret revolutionary organization called The Brotherhood, dedicated to the destruction of the Party. Together with his beloved Julia, he hazards his life in a deadly match against the powers that be. Animal Farm is Orwell's classic satire of the Russian Revolution -- an account of the bold struggle, initiated by the animals, that transforms Mr. Jones's Manor Farm into Animal Farm--a wholly democratic society built on the credo that All Animals Are Created Equal. But are they?

    wow

    What a great book! I am not sure what I was expecting from it, but it wasn't this greatness! The amount of times I was left with goosebumps and a fast heartbeat...I find it clever how the author created a comparison to political themes in the past. And the ending.. wow.

    Marvellous.

    Absolutely beautiful way of showing politics in a book which seems like a fairytale. All the little details that refer to Soviet Union (the horn and a hoof like a hammer and a sickle). I read this book outloud for my mother and translated it to her (we are from Ukraine) and she told me that many things that are mentioned in 1984 were real in the Soviet Union. I can't even imagine how horrible it was.

    Absolutely beautiful edition and great read

    I read through this book in a day. It's super short but shows how the masses are susceptible to one small manipulations at a time through the abstract animal characters. I'd definitely recommended this book to everyone!

    Frighteningly modern!

    There is a reason that some books stick around forever and others (like Obamas musings) fade into obscurity. They all share the same characteristic - timelessness. This work is as relevant today as it was in the 1940's. Its a scathing portrayal of human nature and stupidity, using great visual references, that are easy to grasp even for the less imaginative. A must read for EVERYONE!

    "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."

    Animal Farm is precisely the sort of book that, from time to time, takes on ever greater significance and can feel alarmingly real. The animals on the farm attempt to stage a revolt – for freedom and justice, and above all for equality and peace. But, sadly, it becomes all too clear that even amongst animals, justice is categorised into different boxes. So is freedom really not as simple as we hope, or are we ourselves part of the system that robs us of our freedom? Or do the people who ban this book from libraries really have that much power over us, or are they just people wearing "Make America Great Again" hats who, sadly, simply have the upper hand – even though they’d be better off reading a history book?

    Napoleon is always right!

    For me, no other book felt as divided within itself as this one. Thematically narrowed down to the point - yet universally understandable. Although the text is easy to read, it is difficult to see through. It is as if Orwell wanted to pour his inner turmoil about the development of the early Soviet Union into the novel - and you can feel his disappointment through the letters. The novel rightly is one of the great classics and certainly one of the books you should read at least once in your life.

    Animal Farm

    The book tells the gripping story of animals on a farm who rebel against the oppression of their powerful owner and start a revolution. The revolution is led by the farm's pigs. It shows how the pigs try to develop their own power structures to improve their situation. Particularly impressive is the depiction of how propaganda and false information are used to manipulate the animals and secure control. The book vividly shows how propaganda works and how it serves to secure and consolidate power. It is a fascinating and instructive story that inspires reflection on power, manipulation, and the meaning of truth.

    A must read

    Already a classic by the end of the 20th century and a must read for everyone. No other book illustrates and questions the history of communism in the former Soviet Union more gripping. Motives, organisation and gradual descent into perversion and farce, find it all on "Animal Farm"!
