In 1984, London is a grim city where Big Brother is always watching you and the Thought Police can practically read your mind. Winston Smith joins 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.Animal Farm is Orwell's classic satire of the Russian Revolution -- an 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. But are they?

"Loved Animal Farm. Hated 1984."

Caroline Davis

"I don't know if you're asking about 1984 or Animal Farm, but 1984 is the better book, in my opinion. Animal Farm is more oriented to teens or young adults. "

Justin Wooten

"Animal farm is pain itself so brutal I can’t believe I read it when I was 12… 1984 however, is equally painful if not more, but it will also give you an existential crisis. I favor the latter, as at least the pain is productive. Just read it. It really is beautiful."
