Die Tiere auf der Manor Farm haben die Schnauze voll davon, dass ihre menschlichen Herren sie ausbeuten. Unter dem alten Keiler Old Major, der den Tieren die Produkte ihrer Arbeit zukommen lassen möchte, planen sie die Revolution. Als Old Major stirbt, übernehmen die beiden Schweine Schneeball und Napoleon die Führung. Gemeinsam gehen die Tiere auf die Barrikaden und vertreiben die Menschen schließlich von der Farm. Doch Napoleon ist seine neue Macht zu Kopf gestiegen. Unter dem Deckmantel der neuen Gleichberechtigung aller Tiere baut Napoleon eine brutale und korrupte Gesellschaft auf.

Renowned urban artist Shepard Fairey's new look for Orwell's timeless satire
'All animals are equal. But some animals are more equal than others.'
Mr Jones of Manor Farm is so lazy and drunken that one day he forgets to feed his livestock. The ensuing rebellion under the leadership of the pigs Napoleon and Snowball leads to the animals taking over the farm. Vowing to eliminate the terrible inequities of the farmyard, the renamed Animal Farm is organised to benefit all who walk on four legs. But as time passes, the ideals of the rebellion are corrupted, then forgotten. And something new and unexpected emerges. . .
Animal Farm - the history of a revolution that went wrong - is George Orwell's brilliant satire on the corrupting influence of power.
