I loved this book! I am told that just about everyone read this book in school but I have to admit I wasn't paying attention in school so it is new to me.
While Animal Farm was meant to be a criticism of the Soviet government I recognized almost every form of government that currently exists reflected in this book. Also included was a commentary on mob mentality and organized religion.
I had not realized (remember I said I wasn't paying attention years ago) that Orwell was such a controversial writer. I will make a note to myself to look for more of his books.
Is this book still being read in school? I hope so, I believe that his message is just as significant now as it was over 60 years ago.
