Bibliocollège - La Ferme des Animaux, G. Orwell

Mr Jones is a farmer who neglects his animals. Under George Orwell's fanciful pen, they revolt and hunt him. The Manoir Farm is then renamed "Farm of Animals" and he paints a command on the barn that has the force of law: "All the ANIMALS ARE EQUAL." "Long live the four legs! Down the two legs!" bumbles at all about happy sheep.But the dream only for a time... Indeed, pigs, intelligent but without mercy, gradually take power, and Napoleon, the most tyrannical among them, ends up ruling as absolute master over a slave people.If this pamphlet with finesse first aims at Soviet utopia, he still sheds light on the ideals and realities of our societies, their values and their drifts.
