Explanation
Orwell uses the animals to expose human weaknesses such as greed, selfishness, and the abuse of power. The farm’s events also express broader ideas about inequality and political control that apply beyond the story, while drawing attention to social and political problems. Several characters and events echo real historical figures and events, allowing Orwell to criticize them through satire. The novel does not present communism as a perfect world or offer solutions to alcoholism and overwork.
