A satirical look at Soviet totalitarianism using animals on a farm as an allegorical device. The revision of history by those in power is a theme that returns in Orwell's famous dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four. While the setting of Animal Farm does not quite fit the parameters of a dystopian society Orwell's work here seems to progress directly toward the speculations about future society in Nineteen Eighty-Four common themes being the will to power power's corrupting influence and the obliteration of history.
