Animal Farm by George Orwell is without question one of the most influential and celebrated novels of the 20th century, and though many people rightfully claim that it serves as an analogy to the Russian revolution of 1917 , I believe that it is about the process of revolutions in general.  Just to give those who haven’t heard about it a little heads up, the story takes place on a farm where the animals have managed to overthrow their human overlord and have taken up charge, putting their own system in place. 

Humanity’s future is far from being certain or etched in stone, which is actually quite hopeful and downright frightening at the same time; things could get better, but it seem as if human nature would like for them to get worse.   George Orwell has become one of the most renowned and respected authors in the entire world, and 1984 is arguably his most widely-recognized work. As some of you may already know, in 1984 Orwell depicts in a novelized fashion what he believes the future may look like considering the human nature.
