George Orwell's timeless fable--a parable for would-be liberators everywhere, glimpsed through the lens of our own history As ferociously fresh as it was more than a half century ago, this remarkable allegory of a downtrodden society of overworked, mistreated animals, and their quest to create a paradise of progress, justice, and equality is one of the most scathing satires ever published.

Book Description The Wordsworth Poetry Library comprises the works of the greatest English-speaking poets, as well as many lesser-known poets. Each collection has a specially commissioned introduction. This full edition of Wordsworth's poetical works shows how the poet was much influenced by the events of the French revolution in his youth, breaking away from the artificial diction of the Augustan and neo-classical traditions of the 18th century.
