This book is an animalian illustration of how humanity time and again uses power for evil. Animal Farm is an important contradiction in itself because it shows how superiority and mental capacity on a higher evolutionary level is not necessarily a qualification for supremacy. This book is a screenplay that is unfortunately and inveitably replayed everyday and the nations of this world are the stages. Not necessarily a masterpiece, this book is a truthful guide into the faults of humanity. The irony: it takes a group of beasts to guide us.
