Since its publication in 1946, George Orwell's fable of a workers' revolution gone wrong has rivaled Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea as the Shortest Serious Novel It's OK to Write a Book Report About. (The latter is three pages longer and less fun to read.) Fueled by Orwell's intense disillusionment with Soviet Communism, Animal Farm is a nearly perfect piece of writing, both an engaging story and an allegory that actually works. When the downtrodden beasts of Manor Farm oust their drunken human master and take over management of the land, all are awash in collectivist zeal. Everyone willingly works overtime, productivity soars, and for one brief, glorious season, every belly is full. The animals' Seven Commandment credo is painted in big white letters on the barn. All animals are equal. No animal shall drink alcohol, wear clothes, sleep in a bed, or kill a fellow four-footed creature. Those that go upon four legs or wings are friends and the two-legged are, by definition, the enemy. Too soon, however, the pigs, who have styled themselves leaders by virtue of their intelligence, succumb to the temptations of privilege and power. "We pigs are brainworkers. The whole management and organisation of the farm depend on us. Day and night, we are watching over your welfare. It is for your sake that we drink that milk and eat those apples." While this swinish brotherhood sells out the revolution, cynically editing the Seven Commandments to excuse their violence and greed, the common animals are once again left hungry and exhausted, no better off than in the days when humans ran the farm. Satire Animal Farm may be, but it's a stony reader who remains unmoved when the stalwart workhorse, Boxer, having given his all to his comrades, is sold to the glue factory to buy booze for the pigs. Orwell's view of Communism is bleak indeed, but given the history of the Russian people since 1917, his pessimism has an air of prophecy. --Joyce Thompson --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

和想象中的终极恐怖的《一九八四》不同,乔治·奥威尔的成名作《动物农场》则要生动直接得多,是对当时现实,尤其是苏联的深刻反映和辛辣讽刺,可谓一部另类的苏联历史(革命到二战末期)。 这部只有六万字的小说,我们可以非常清晰的把其中的角色和故事与苏联的各阶级群体与历...
评分2006年3月23日 读书笔记《动物庄园》 奥威尔你估量的事情,基本都没有说错。但总有一些小小的意外,你没有猜到,也就没办法言说。在主人房的窗沿底下,动物们窥见猪头拿破伦,变化出一张人类的脸孔,他们之后的反应,书里就没了下文,这让我联想纷纷,不知所措。 我所遭遇的...
评分对乔治.奥威尔的两部小说《1984》《动物庄园》仰慕已久,前一阵看完《1984》之后,回味良久,但一直没有接着看《动物庄园》,今天看douban上看到了网友的评论,又有空,所以就down了一本看,比《1984》短,只有10章,很快就看完了. 在刚开始看的时候,感觉似曾相识,突然想起大...
评分1.母牛唱的是哞哞的低音声部,狗的哀叫适用于长腔,羊的咩咩、马的嘶鸣、鸭的呷呷叫,统统各得其所。 2.人的区别性标志是手,人正是用它来干一切坏事的。 3.只有一种人是好的,那就是死人。 4.于是,《英格兰生灵》再也听不见了。诗人小不点儿谱写了另一首歌取而代之,它的...
