George Orwell's Books
His books are strange in that a few of them do not have happy endings. 1984,Animal Farm 1984 is an amazing book. "A boot stamping on the human face....forever" and all that. Powerful stuff... What do yoall think?

Re: George Orwell's Books
it sounds serious, but i wouldn't know because i saw the cartoon movie version of Animal Farm lol. my dad told me how the book had a lot of symbolic stuff in it, but the movie i saw wasn't that serious at all lol

Re: George Orwell's Books
Yea that movie was not that great. People probably miss some of the symbolism in parts becasue it is so silly The book is less silly of coure.

Re: George Orwell's Books
lol i read animal farm in 6th grade, it was rly weird. it ended w/ da pigs walking. i felt kinda freaked out by dat book's ending, and the fact dat snowball never appeared after he left. it left me in a lot of suspense. i remember dat it was supposed to symbolize some government think with hitler...

Re: George Orwell's Books
Actually it symbolizes more the Russian revolution of October 1917 and the people and events that involved in it.... Snowball=Trotsky Napolean=Stalin Dogs=KGB etc. But I only see these things in it because I am a bit of a history nut
