<em>WorldCat</em>: "Fueled by Orwell's intense disillusionment with Soviet Communism, Animal Farm is a nearly perfect piece of writing, both an engaging story and an allegory that actually works. When the downtrodden beasts of Manor Farm oust their drunken human master and take over management of the land, all are awash in collectivist zeal."
Allegedly all Secker & Warburg and Penguin editions include the suffix "A Fairy Story" and American versions don't.
