![]() ![]() ![]() While the story and language are simple, Orwell is unnervingly precise in the way he depicts each step on the road from revolution to tyranny. Not for good reason has Animal Farm become one of the most important novels of the post-war world. Mould’s magnificent illustrations perfectly compliment the story. This new edition from Faber, Orwell’s original publisher, is beautifully illustrated by Chris Mould. Before long, the pigs are at the top of the social ladder and the rest of the livestock are wondering what happened. Gradually, however, the pigs begin making helpful suggestions about how the farm should be run. At first, the animals are able to work together and support each other. They plan to run the farm themselves, for their own benefit. After years of oppression by Farmer Jones, the animals on his farm rise up and chase him away. ![]()
