Animal Farm (Classics To Go)

Comprenant ce qui se passait sous Staline, George Orwell s’en fit largement l’écho. En 1945, malgré une résistance acharnée contre la sortie du livre, il publia La Ferme des animaux, une fable faisant la satire de l’Union soviétique.

It’s a similar story with the flap copy that Orwell wrote for the first edition of Animal Farm, published in 1945 by Secker & Warburg.40 In clear, measured tones, it tells us: It is the history of a revolution that went wrong – and of the excellent excuses that were forthcoming at every step for each perversion of the original doctrine.
