Ratings and reviews

Despite Animal Farm being a great, classic read, this version of the book is full of typos. There aren't any quotation marks or apostrophes anywhere, and you'll find tons of sentences with errors such as: "AndI was a long way away, but I am almost certain I saw thishe was talking to you [...]" I am not sure if there are any better versions in this store but this one is certainly not of high quality. It is much easier to find a PDF of this book on Google (the first result of searching "Animal Farm PDF" should be adequate).

Have heard references to this book for a long time. A lot of it in a trivia format. Have now got a better idea of how Hitler got the nation to follow him. Lie about what your doing and tell the masses it's all good! Good read.

The animals of england have finally rose. unfortunately some pigs declare themselvs leaders and cause Chaos. warning google only shows a preview not the whole book >=[

About the author

ERIC ARTHUR BLAIR (1903–1950), better known by his pen name George Orwell, was an English author and journalist whose best-known works include the dystopian novel 1984 and the satirical novella Animal Farm. He is consistently ranked among the best English writers of the 20th century, and his writing has had a huge, lasting influence on contemporary culture. Several of his coined words have since entered the English language, and the word "Orwellian" is now used to describe totalitarian or authoritarian social practices.
