First edition, second impression of Orwell's timeless allegorical novel— a scathing satire on a downtrodden society’s blind march towards totalitarianism. Octavo, original publisher's green cloth. Very good in a very good dust jacket with closed tears to the spine and front panel. A sharp example.
"A political fable that partly recounts, in an allegorical mode, the aftermath of the Russian revolution, and partly illustrates a belief in the universal tendency of power to corrupt" (Stringer, 22)." Animal Farm is [Orwell’s] masterpiece" (Connolly 93). Time Magazine chose it as one of the 100 best English-language novels (1923 to 2005); it also featured at number 31 on the Modern Library List of Best 20th-Century Novels. It won a Retrospective Hugo Award in 1996, and is included in the Great Books of the Western World selection.
