…on the Animal farm?
I’ve just finished the classic Animal Farm of George Orwell in an edition with great illustrations.
If you haven’t read it, do it. It’s like reading about our big and small world today.
So, who are you on the Aminal Farm?
Snowball, Napoleon, Boxer, Squeler, the hens, Benjamin, the rats, or one of the two legs?
It isn’t an easy question to answer, I know. I just came up with the question right know, so I don’t know what my own answer would be. I hope that I’m not Napoleon, I want to rule him out of the alternatives.
So, give the question a thought or two if you like. If you come up with an answer please share your thoughts with us in the comments field. Here on wp we’re not what Animal farm became at the end.

Animal Farm is an old favourite of mine. I could not tell you which character I most closely resemble, although there are obvious elements of both Boxer and Snowball in me.

That was a good answer. I like both of those characters, they did good in their different ways.

That’s a great classic, Anna. I’ve forgotten the individual characters but I do remember the saying “some are more equal than others” and that is so true today.

Yes he was. Too bad that idiots don’t read and learn something from such authors.

Man, I haven’t read that since high school. Amazingly accurate depiction of a society in general.

Yes, it’s a very readable book and says a lot about today. Sadly though, that we haven’t learned anything since then.

I don’t know either. Sometimes I’m like the horse, just work, work, work and sometimes I’m Snowball, I disappear from the madness 🙂
