Sobre aquest llibre
In "Animal Farm," George Orwell employs allegorical storytelling to critique totalitarianism and explore the intricacies of power dynamics, class struggle, and societal corruption. Set on a seemingly idyllic farm, the narrative follows the rebellion of the animals against their oppressive human owner, only to witness the emergence of a new tyranny. Through a straightforward yet poignant prose style, Orwell masterfully intertwines fable-like simplicity with deeply resonant political commentary, echoing the tumultuous events of the Russian Revolution and the rise of Stalinism. This book serves as a cautionary tale about the usurpation of revolutionary ideals and the ease with which noble intentions can devolve into despotism. George Orwell, born Eric Arthur Blair, was profoundly influenced by his experiences in colonial India and the Spanish Civil War, which fueled his commitment to social justice and opposition to authoritarian regimes. His keen observations of societal inequalities and political machinations inspired him to pen "Animal Farm" during a time when fascism and communism posed significant threats to democratic values. Orwell's keen intellect and lived experiences illuminate the allegories within this literary work. Recommended for readers seeking a concise yet impactful exploration of the perils of power and betrayal of ideals, "Animal Farm" remains an essential reading not only for its historical significance but also for its timeless reflection on human nature and governance. Orwell's narrative invites readers to reflect critically on their own societal structures, making it a profound commentary on the eternal struggle for freedom and equity.

Sobre l'autor
George Orwell, the pseudonym of Eric Arthur Blair, was a towering figure in 20th-century literature, known for his lucid prose, biting social criticism, and unwavering commitment to democratic socialism. Born on June 25, 1903, in Motihari, Bihar, in British India, Orwell was a prolific writer whose work spans a variety of genres including journalism, essays, fiction, and non-fiction. Among his most celebrated works is 'Animal Farm' (1945), a fierce satire on the corruption of revolutionary ideals and a piercing commentary on the totalitarian abuse of power. Heading to Eton College for his education, Orwell later joined the Imperial Police in Burma, an experience that fostered his growing detestation of imperialism and eventually led to his resignation. Orwell's writing style is distinguished by its clarity, intelligence, and wit, his narratives often underscored by a prophetic awareness of social injustices and an intense opposition to totalitarianism, most famously depicted in his dystopian novel '1984'. Orwell's works are characterized by his profound consciousness of social wrongs, as well as his belief in democratic socialism as opposed to totalitarianism. Despite his battle against tuberculosis, Orwell continued to write until his death on January 21, 1950. His essays and novels remain powerful and relevant, cementing his legacy as one of the English language's most important and influential writers.
