Why George Orwell wrote animal farm?

Answer 1

1. The events that Orwell tries to describe in the story are quite complex and require a lot of information to understand, so making the story a fable simplifies the events.

2. It allows Orwell to attack and satirize Stalin & others indirectly. First of all, he associated Stalin with a Pig.

3. The book would be suitable for young and older audiences. However, to understand the book fully, you will need to understand the concepts of the Russion Revolution.

Answer 2

I am reading this book right now in my literature class. We've been taught that George Orwell is using "sattire", which means he is trying to riducle. In this book, he is ridicuing communisim, particularly in Russia, with the U.S.S.R. and Soviet Union. He uses certain characters in the book to represent famous people that took part in the time the communism was happening. Characters like Mr. Jones, Mollie, Moses, Benjamin and others represent real people

I'm sorry to say but I disagree with the answer above ^

I think that in the eyes of Mr. Orwell, the sole purpose of the book was to expose the Soviet myth of Russia's acclaimed socialist utopia in a way that almost anyone can comprehend. The simplicity of language in the book and the usage of animals to convey the message made it a prime candidate for a cartoon version and thus one was created.
