The novel original title was Animal Farm: A Fairy Story, but the subtitle was dropped by the US publisher. Time magazine chose the book as one of the 100 best English-language novels (1923 to 2005). It also places at number 31 on the Modern Library List of Best 20th-Century Novels.
Animal Farm is a tale that shows how power can corrupt even the best people. The pure motives that guided the revolution soon get forgotten by those who take leadership roles. As Franz Kafka said, “Every revolution evaporates and leaves behind it the slime of a new bureaucracy.” (Animal Farm, Dictatorships and Mormonism)
