The conclusion is one that I will remember:

No, question, now, what had happened to the faces of the pigs. The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again: but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Thought prokoving. Troubling. Very political. Hard to put your finger on where the manipulation and gaslighting starts. Shows how power can go to anyone's head no matter the intention.

Animal Farm is definitely a classic for a reason. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one and finished it in a little less than three hours.
