I thought this would be a good way to follow-up on Orwell's [b:Animal Farm|7613|Animal Farm|George Orwell|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1276615812s/7613.jpg|2207778], but it was rather dry and boring (fortunately a short read).
The voices between animals (and therefore nationalities) didn't differ enough for me, and the strange format of talking "at" the reader never quite let me settle into the story. The research was evident, yet the narrative was awkward.
