動物農莊

內容簡介

內容簡介 所有動物一律平等，但有些動物比其他動物更平等農莊上的動物一心以人類為敵，羣起推翻人類的欺壓統治，以圖建立平等互愛、自給自足的動物王國。革命成功，豬隻拿破崙初嘗權力的美味，逐步將眾動物心目中的理想家園扭曲粉碎。他鞏固勢力、排除異己、利用動物的無知與信任，漸漸令自己變成華衣美服、酒足飯飽、兩腿走路的豬領袖。其他動物才赫然發現，奉上的汗水與性命，都是徒勞的。《動物農莊》以幽默諷刺的筆法，刻畫昔日極權主義國家的階級鬥爭，今日相類的權力和壓榨遊戲卻同時在各國勢力、社會階層及辦公室上時刻公演。當你每天辛勞工作，卻備受剝削，只為當權者服務，難道不像那咬緊牙關拖着石頭的老馬？當你擁有權力，你能保證自己不是手握鞭子監視其他動物工作、喝着葡萄酒的豬領袖？荒謬的情節警示，現實比小說更荒謬。本中文書介出自《動物農莊》商務印書館（香港）有限公司出版 "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others. "Mr Jones, the owner of Manor Farm, is a lazy drunk. The animals decide to overthrow him in a revolution that will allow them to run the farm, liberating themselves and creating a new life of equality and freedom. But they have underestimated the pigs. Napoleon and Snowball form an elite and take control for themselves, and the tyranny of the farmer is replaced with another kind of control leaving the animals again subject to a ruthless and cruel authority.Imagined only as Orwell could, this powerful fable is instilled with humour and an underlying urgency that makes this one of the most prescient warnings ever written.WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS"
