Folks will shit on Animal Farm night and day, but its crazy that you can read an allegorical depiction of the Holodomor in a children's anti-communist parable from the 1940s that is more accurate than 95% of western straight-laced high school / college history accounts.
i never bothered with animal farm. it has a famine in it?

It has the pigs doing a communist revolution against farmers than making everything way better. This is supposed to prove communism bad for some reason. There is a plot twist where the communist pigs start copying the capitlaist farmers and everything gets much worse again. This again is supposed to prove comunism bad.
