Just read animal farm for the first time... I have put off Orwell for a long time because I felt like I had already internalized the stories via cultural osmosis.

It's a pretty funny satire to start off, I laughed out loud at the description of the Marx pig having overgrown tusks, but the depiction of the Jews involved in the Russian Revolution and subsequent years as pigs and their complete betrayal and destruction of Christian farmers (Boxer the Horse) seems a tad anti-semitic.

I might go ahead and read 1984 as well...I heard there is a certain nefarious character coincidently named Goldstein. Was Orwell an anti-semite?
