![]() ![]() ![]() 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. ![]() ![]() ![]() In living memory of Roy, a memorial planting will be made by W.J.

It is the perfect prison, get outside the underground warrens and beyond the air locks and you’re on the moon. The Moon (Luna to it’s residents – who call themselves Loonies) has been a penal colony for decades. Told from the first person recollection of a computer technician (with thick Russian accent) and of the birth and progress of the Lunar independence. This is a virtuoso science fiction futuristic re-telling of the American Revolution. I liked the setting, the use of libertarian principles and of course the brilliant work of the Grandmaster himself. And just as The Fountainhead is the better, though less epic, of the pair with Atlas Shrugged, so is Moon is a Harsh Mistress, the more focused and simple of the two, better than Stranger in a Strange Land. ![]() Heinlein vehicle for theology, so is Moon is a Harsh Mistress to ideology.
