1984. Animal Farm

The novel «1984» about the dangers of totalitarianism has become one of the most famous dystopias of the 20th century, standing alongside «We» by Zamyatin, «Brave New World» by Huxley, and «Fahrenheit 451» by Bradbury.

What will happen if ideas of fascism and dictatorship spread among the ruling circles? What will society look like if power demands unwavering obedience? What catastrophe will such a regime lead to?

The allegorical tale «Animal Farm» is full of sharp sarcasm and political satire. The inhabitants of the farm embody the most terrible human vices, and the farm itself becomes a symbol of a totalitarian society. How will its inhabitants — the animals led to slaughter — exist in such a society?
