Animal Farm by George Orwell
VINTAGE HARDCOVER [1946] HARCOURT BRACE & COMPANY
Near mint hardcover sans dust jacket. Later printing of what is presumably the original book club edition. Boards bound with green cloth and paper, unlike the more common solid green cloth variation.
Book is near mint. Clean, tight boards. Pages are white and read like new.
A farm is taken over by its overworked, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and stirring slogans, they set out to create a paradise of progress, justice, and equality. Thus the stage is set for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned—a razor-edged fairy tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible.
