Rebelión en la granja (Spanish Edition)

A statement against totalitarianism and in favor of freedom that has become a classic of twentieth-century literature. Written in 1945, this satire of the Russian Revolution and the rise of Stalinism is now recognized as a landmark of contemporary culture and one of the most biting books ever written. As the animals of Manor Farm gain power, the seeds of totalitarianism emerge within what appears to be an ideal organization, and the most charismatic leaders reveal themselves as cruel oppressors. This edition is endorsed by The Orwell Foundation and follows the definitive text of the author's complete works as established by professor Peter Davison. It includes an afterword by journalist and essayist Christopher Hitchens, highlighting the author's relevance today. The translation by Marcial Souto, first published in 2013, is the most recent Spanish version of the work.
