Animal farm by George Orwell is a short story about animals who want
to get equal groan by the underdog who is the leader of animal farm. There is a
revolution on a farm to against human, after that the underdog pigs start to
control the farm and overwork for animals. Pigs start to look for weakness of
animals and create a feeling to fear them. Pigs also do the propaganda campaign
which they want the other animal trust. All the animals are controlled the mind
by pigs and support them for no reason. The end of the book is pigs take place
like human for all the things.
The story is told from an animal that is living in farm point of view. The
author gives some subjective ideas of some animals, whereas the other
characters are described by author’s own words. The plot proceeds
chronologically over a decade. There are two kinds of characters: Boxer, who is
a strong horse, represents the static person of sociality, and Napoleon, who is
the leader of the oppressed, represents the dynamic person of sociality. The author
uses special way to symbolize animals to human in socialism.
I thought the story is like a “fairy story” to describe a country which
did not have economic foundation tries in vain to create a Utopian country and
finally failing. In the story, it is interesting when Boxer was against by Napoleon;
he was still static to believe Napoleon and worked hard for every day. Finally,
he was sent to horse slaughterer and was made for glue. This kind of animal
represents the people which is follow blindly for political and is persecuted
at the end. This story gives us some cautions for imperfect political system
and prevents us from following blindly.
