Book Review TITLE Animal Farm AUTHOR George Orwell RATING 5/5 MY REVIEW This book, probably one of the best allegorical novels out there, is a great critique of Authoritarianism, Cults of Personality, the USSR (Stanilism). Throughout the book, Animal Farm becomes State Capitalist going against what the characters wished for initially. The characters are well developed and serve their allegorical roles effectively. The concise prose style makes the book accessible to range of readers. Despite being a commentary on events that occurred nearly a century ago, "Animal Farm" remains relevant today as a cautionary tale about the dangers of authoritarianism, propaganda, and the erosion of democratic ideals.
