by ORWELL, George
New York: Harcourt, Brace and Company, 1946. Hardcover. Very Good. Book club edition. Owner name and address penned on front pastedown, spine ends and corners lightly bumped, else a very good copy lacking the dustjacket. A brilliant, classic anti-utopian short novel, in which a cast of barnyard animals re-enact the events of the Russian Revolution and the betrayal of its more humane elements by Stalin. Well-adapted both as a 1955 cartoon and a 1999 cable movie using the latest animal-special effects, though both versions added upbeat endings to Orwell's harrowing vision. *Connolly 100*.
