Animal Farm

Hey guys. Adventure Van here with a report on Animal Farm, a political paper to claims to be a book. Written by the infamous George Orwell, this is a political piece using animals more of an allegory then as a cohesive story. As a book, the character personalities jump around wildly from plot to plot, and there some rather gaping holes. However, read instead as a mouthpiece for his views, it a critique and attack on the idea of communism, which is understandable seeing his part played in fighting during the Spanish Civil War. Due to that, he had some very strong views on the subject. The main problem I can pull is from the beginning and the end of the book, respectfully. The main point is that the rulers of the revolution will become power hungry and turn into the rulers that were overthrown. However, since the point is that things will become the same by removing those who were already in power (the pigs becoming the farmers), then that does not make it so that the original farmers were any better as "rulers". Of course, that's just a matter of opinion, as well is the rest of the book. It is still an interesting read, which will be brought up in many conversations, so it's worth being well read in it.

Adventure Van, squealing.
