Orwell tells, allegorically, how the Russian Revolution would go if its participants were animals, and if you reduced Russia to the area of a typical England country farm. When you get what the point of the book is—being a satire of Communism written during [[World War II]]—it's not hard to guess [[Downer Ending|where the plot is going]].

It also inspired [[Pink Floyd]]'s [[Concept Album]] ''Animals'', though it criticizes capitalism instead of communism. ''[[wikipedia:Snowball's Chance|Snowball's Chance]]'' also rips on both capitalism and ''Animal Farm'' itself, portraying Snowball returning and becoming a [[George W. Bush]] [[Expy]].

 

 

Do not confuse with ''[[Animal House]]''.
