ANIMAL FARM: George Orwell's classic satire of the Russian Revolution is an intimate part of our contemporary culture. It is the account of the bold struggle, initiated by the animals, that transforms Mr. Jones's Manor Farm into Animal Farm--a wholly democratic society built on the credo that All Animals Are Created Equal.

Świat pustych sklepów, permanentnej wojny, jednej wiary....

"Jedna z najsłynniejszych powieści XX wieku! Nowe tłumaczenie, obnażające współczesne formy zniewolenia. Okrutna i sugestywna wizja świata, w którym rządzi przemoc i strach, a władza panuje nie tylko nad losem człowieka, ale też nad jego myślami i uczuciami. Boleśnie aktualna opowieść o pragnieniu władzy i konsekwencjach jej nadużywania. Zarazem to przejmująca, głęboko ludzka opowieść o samotności, o tęsknocie do miłości,...
