Es una fábula corta pero inmensamente poderosa sobre cómo los ideales de libertad e igualdad pueden ser traicionados por el poder. Con una sencillez que engancha, George Orwell crea una historia inolvidable que te hará reflexionar mucho después de haberla terminado.
This book gives a lot of thought about the current time, but has done so in previous years. The key takeaway is to take care of yourself, your rights and to stand up for what you believe is right.
A great insightful and easy read.

Well, power corrupts, and leaders are all evil. Short at least, and will stick with you. Would liked to have seen Snowball have a final say
