"Animal Farm" by George Orwell

The book reflects events leading up to and during the Stalinism before The Second World War. The novel addresses the corruption of the revolution by its leaders and how indifference, ignorance and greed destroy any possibility of a Utopia. How problems within a revolution could allow horrors to happen. As Orwell himself explained: "it is the history of a revolution that went wrong"
