"Animal Farm"

George Orwell, in addition to his prophetic “1984,” wrote yet another prophetic novel, called "Animal Farm," where the animals took over a farm and created their own government, which became a dictatorship after the pigs “took over” because the other animals didn’t resist. The “watchword” of this entire book was a simple statement written on the side of a barn. It started out, “All Animals Are Created Equal” and at the end of the book was added, “But some animals are more equal than others.” Are we on our own “Animal Farm?” Orwell was a socialist, but this novel is a savage criticism of socialism and the misuse of power.
