Publisher Description
'All animals are equal. But some animals are more equal than others.' Animal Farm - the history of a revolution that went wrong - is George Orwell's brilliant satire on the corrupting influence of power. Mr Jones of Manor Farm is so lazy and drunken that one day he forgets to feed his livestock. The ensuing rebellion under the leadership of the pigs Napoleon and Snowball leads to the animals taking over the farm. Vowing to eliminate the terrible inequities of the farmyard, the renamed Animal Farm is organised to benefit all who walk on four legs. But as time passes, the ideals of the rebellion are corrupted, then forgotten. And something new and unexpected emerges... This thought-provoking drama was first broadcast as part of BBC Radio's The Real George Orwell season - a Radio 4 journey that explored the disjuncture between the man who was Eric Blair and the writer who was George Orwell.
Customer Reviews
Good but not matching the book 🤧
I really liked the noises of the animals and how dramatic it was, but it doesn’t match my book if they knew it didn’t match some books I wish they would say I can’t find my place and I think it skipped a lot. ;(
Excellent Rendition
I vaguely remember reading this book as a child. Lovely audio book. Truly felt the characters in this book. They were really brought to life with the readings.
