A review by l_myers
Animal Farm by George Orwell

challenging dark sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

I have now read this for the second time and after learning more about the historical context and actions this book is in response to, I truly believe this is a helpful tool into viewing the society that had formed during the time. Politics are a big theme and the dysfunctional society is a great representation of the history. This is a very fast paced and short read. The material is heavy topic wise but not dense reading.
