Although it is in allegory, the violence and death in this book can be graphic - especially if you're sensitive to animal deathclare072's review against another edition

4 legs good, 2 legs better!
Sigh.. this book infuriates me but in such a good way. The social commentary on hypocrisy and corruption of the government. damn. Orwell perfectly shows how easily overtime the population (in this case the animals can be manipulated by a higher power (in this case, by the pigs)

Anyways, if you want to read it just because it's considered a classic, do it knowing it's full of anticommunism sentiment and it's not genuine. I would just tell you not to waste your time, but you do you - I myself only listened to it to be able to criticize it and refute it. Everyone has their reasons. You could consider it a "hate reading" haha
