🌟 I love Orwell's writing for the powerful simplicity of his style. Every sentence moves the story forward. I especially appreciated how he wrote about animals expressing emotion. I re-read this for book club in a few short sittings in early 2026. 🐷 Poor Snowball. 🐑 The way the incessant bleating of the sheep prevented any further discussion was an interesting and effective detail. 🎮 TIL there's video game adaptation created in conjunction with Orwell's estate. play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nerial.animalfarm&hl=en_US

Excelente analogía del comunismo.

5 stars

Una de las mejores analogías que he leído y en este caso, Orwell expone la cruda realidad del comunismo representada en los animales de la granja, donde los cerdos son los líderes del nuevo gobierno (nada mejor representado con los cerdos) y sus víctimas, los animales según el carácter de cada uno de ellos. Un libro recomendado.
