It helps, but the main thing is that they're a competent, trained theatrical actor. Amateurs and screen actors don't make for good audiobooks. They also need to be smart enough to understand what they're reading.

I can see why this novel got the backlash that it did. This man was exposing literally all of the world leaders and their manipulation tactics. Dictators didn’t want their subjects to get their hands on this piece of artwork and wise up. Brilliant.

I've no idea where you come from, but have you ever heard of Sir Patrick Moore, eccentric English astronomer? He was born in 1921, served in the RAF through 6 years of war,and was the sole presenter of the longest running programme in the world. The Sky at Night. He had a sickly childhood, was mostly home schooled or self-taught, drew maps of the moon for the lunar landers, and only missed 1 episode in nearly 60 years and sadly died after his last broadcast.😢

Poor snowball, man, they be blaming him for everything 😭😭😭

[@Cloud_Seeker]

Yes they did. It is how human behaves. It is the Emmanuel Goldstein and the two minutes of hate. Where you are basically forced to publicly hate someone and it is hard to not get swept in from time to time. We have an example of this in real life. He is called Donald Trump. The hate and what people blame him for is just insane. Sure. He isn't always the best, but there are so many lies about him it is just pure and blind hatred with any rationality.

This is extremely well done. They went from freedom for all animals, to all animals working to keep the system that enslaved them alive, to a half democracy, to full communism worse than they faced in the beginning… he painted the pictures of how quickly and easily that line can be blurred. And the role the sheep and horse play along the way is brilliant. Very well written.

[@NoLefTurnUnStoned.]

[@airimder]

Genuinely brilliant book, though it's surprising how few people read it as the detailed allegory for the first few decades of the Soviet Union that it is. The thesis of the book is shockingly leftist for those first introduced to it via the American schooling system, and upon re-reading, the nuances of Orwell's critique of Soviet communism-turned-authoritarian-state-capitalism from a leftist perspective are really striking, and his method of delivery is incredibly unique. One of my favorite books of all time.

[@adrianashilling2573]

Very apropos in 2023.

[@MrJuliopolis]

You mean authoritarian-state-corporatism. Capitalism is the full decentralization of the power of trade to each individual person. That means we each have the right to choose to buy and sell as we see fit, including who we will work for or who we will hire. All other economic systems removes some of those freedoms from us and gives those choices to another who can tell us what we must/musn't buy or where we will work or who we will hire.

[@KimballTho]

@@MrJuliopolis That's the free market. It is not exclusive to capitalism. For example, market socialism is when companies and producers are owned by the workers, but still exist in a free market. What defines capital is... well, capital. Capital is the ownership of monetary property, by which ownership, rather than actual labor, money is produced. In actuality, capitalism often works *against* the free market by the creation and enforcement of monopolies and the prioritization of short-term profit over long-term economic growth. Corporatism is sometimes used as a euphemism for capitalism, but it is much the same thing- whether it is state corporatism or private corporatism. This is largely because capitalism is defined by competition rather than cooperation. The only form of cooperation in a capitalist structure is analogous to an alliance between parties that eventually intend to conquer the other.

Snowball is a reference to Leon Trotsky, a contemporary of Stalin and Lenin. Trotsky failed to guide the Bolshevik/Communist forces the way he liked and fled to France I believe, living in exile until Russian secret service slaughtered him. (Napolean being a comparison to Stalin)

If you blindly trust the government, they will also abused and exploit you. The government will never have your back unless it benefits them and Boxer did not head the warnings he got. If you are told to not think for yourself, you should never trust anything those people tell you ever again. Those who do not want you to think are not your friends. Boxer didn't, and he was turned into glue.

[@madahad9]

I wish I had discovered Orwell much earlier in my life. I might not have understood 1984 until.I waa older but I think I would have enjoyed Animal. Even if I wouldn't have seen the parallels with Stalin and Lenin I think the story is written is such a straightforward way that it can be enjoyed on a surface level. One will immediately sympathize with the animals who toil away on the farm and are ill treated by their owner. When they revolt against their abuser and install a new system which they will no longer be beasts of burden, however it quickly descends into something less than idyllic and begins to resemble their previous owner.

[@katiedotson704]

The great heartbreak here is that Russia hasn’t changed. Like Animal Farm, there was a period when real change seemed to be on the horizon. But a new Napoleon in the form of Vladimir Putin stood up on two legs and seated himself at the head of the table. I can’t help but wonder how many “Boxers” lay dead and rotting all across Crimea, unclaimed and now unnamed. Their families told that their fathers, sons, husbands, and brothers had been captured or deserted so that families couldn’t get the handful of rubles due them. As an American in my senior years, I once thought that my country was safe from this sort of tyranny. I know better now. Like Benjamin, I watch in silence. No one wants to hear what old asses have to say.
