Book Review: Animal Farm by George Orwell (Audiobook)
Animal Farm by George Orwell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Library audio.
I have a deep-abiding hatred for dystopian literature. It began with Brave New World in high school and has not left me. In fact, we were supposed to read this 2 years ago in our AmblesideOnline curriculum, but I wanted the kids to read it with Jason, not me.
Today, we listened to the audiobook on a family day-trip to and from the Cleveland Museum of Art. It was a good way to do it. On the up-side I got my #20for2020 “Out of my Comfort Zone” challenge taken care of and the kids got to “read” and discuss this with Jason.
It is a well-written, idea driven book and important one. I can’t say that I liked it very well.
