"Animal Farm" is a satyr novel that features the revolution of farm animals against humans. The book satirizes several political leaders at the time and their authoritarian and inefficient governments like Stalin, Napoleon, Hittles, among others.

"The birds did not understand Snowball's long words, but they accepted his explanation, and all the humbler animals set to work to learn the new maxim by heart."
