Animal Farm: The Graphic Novel

A beautiful graphic adaptation of George Orwell’s timeless and timely allegorical novel.
“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”
In 1945, George Orwell, called “the conscience of his generation,” created an enduring, devastating story of new tyranny replacing old, and power corrupting even the noblest of causes. Today it is all too clear that Orwell’s masterpiece is still fiercely relevant wherever cults of personality thrive, truths are twisted by those in power, and freedom is under attack. In this fully authorized edition, the artist Odyr translates the world and message of Animal Farm into a gorgeously imagined graphic novel.
Old Major, Napoleon, Squealer, Snowball, Boxer, and all the creatures of Animal Farm come to life in this newly envisaged classic. From his individual brushstrokes to the freedom of his page design, Odyr’s adaptation seamlessly moves between satire and fable and will appeal to all ages, just as Orwell intended.

A classic which is quick & fast pace with only 10 chapters. A well written book & very thought provoking as well. This story makes us realise how power can make animals & humans behave alike.
The book aims at the political satire of the Russian revolution & the characters of the animals just represent the historical figures seen in the revolution.
This book is a fairy tale for grown ups and is mostly read in all universities.
This was an interesting read that I did not have the pleasure of reading all in school. I was told by a friend that this story is about communist Russia, and was asked if I thought there would always be a leader. like this story I strongly believe there would always be a leader. For someone is simply a character trait to be a follower and nothing more. It is not in their nature to challenge the status quo or leadership. It is stories like this why I simply don’t blindly follow and question change even at work. I would recommend the story as a quick read to others.
It boils down to humans thirst of power, leverage the power, ride on others work and lead king size life!
