ANIMAL FARM
George Orwell's classic satire of the Russian Revolution is an intimate part of our contemporary culture. It is the account of the bold struggle, initiated by the animals, that transforms Mr. Jones's Manor Farm into Animal Farm--a wholly democratic society built on the credo that All Animals Are Created Equal. Out of their cleverness, the pigs Napoleon, Squealer, and Snowball emerge as leaders of the new community in a subtle evolution that proves disastrous. The climax is the brutal betrayal of the faithful horse Boxer, when totalitarian rule is reestablished with the bloodstained postscript to the founding slogan: But some Animals Are More Equal Than Others. . . .
1984
In 1984, London is a grim city where Big Brother is always watching you and the Thought Police can practically read your mind. Winston is a man in grave danger for the simple reason that his memory still functions. Drawn into a forbidden love affair, Winston finds the courage to join a secret revolutionary organization called The Brotherhood, dedicated to the destruction of the Party. Together with his beloved Julia, he hazards his life in a deadly match against the powers that be.
不谈思想主题, 单看这本书的情节和人物设置都非常引人入胜。很棒的阅读体验。 读的我头皮发麻。
评分Animal Farm诙谐有趣,最后结局十分讽刺。1984前面看得热血沸腾,后面被捕改造的结局又难过又无奈,这本书就像现实版的the book,只有why没有how。
评分desperately and sorely, I love big brother. Too.
评分A must read for everyone.
评分这本书是明白浅显政治最快速便捷的方式了吧。
