 “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”

When the downtrodden animals of Manor Farm overthrow their master Mr Jones and take over the farm themselves, they imagine it is the beginning of a life of freedom and equality. But gradually a cunning, ruthless elite among them – masterminded by the pigs Napoleon and Snowball – starts to take control.

Soon the other animals discover that they are not all as equal as they thought and find themselves hopelessly ensnared as one form of tyranny is replaced with another. Orwell's chilling “fairy story” is a timeless and devastating satire of idealism betrayed by power and corruption.

This powerfully and beautifully drawn graphic novel adaptation is destined to become the classic illustrated edition of this celebrated work.

George Orwell (1903-1950) was an English author best known for the allegorical Animal Farm (1945) and dystopian Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949). An essayist and critic, as well as a novelist, his real name was Eric Arthur Blair.  Michael Purmensky studied graphic design and drawing at the Secondary Technical School in Hodonin. Since 2009 he has worked at WildCat studios producing comic strips, colouring graphic novels and has just completed his first graphic novels about Czech soldiers in WWII. Christina Dumalasova (b. 1976) has worked for several magazines as a graphic designer. For the past fifteen years, she has been freelancing for various publishing houses. Comic books - and graphic novels in particular - have been her lifelong passion (as well as cinematography). Together with Kateřina Horakova and Michael Purmenský, she is the author of the graphic novel, Quentin Tarantino. Katerina Horakova (b. 1990) studied Czech language and literature at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University. For a long time, her professional life revolved around the field of media - whether in print, radio or television. At present, she focuses on editorial work and teaching Czech. She is the editor of the award-winning graphic novel Chernobyl and collaborates on many others.
