Q4

What is the climax of this novel? What happens?How do the events of this novel make you feel?

The climax of the novel Animal Farm is the revolution inside the revolution, which the time when Napoleon drove out Snowball and took over the animal farm. Napoleon called his security dogs to attack Snowball and Snowball ran out of the farm before getting slaughtered by the dogs. The events of this novel, Animal Farm, are very pointless to me. Literally, the message that the book is trying to give is pointless to me. At least that’s how I feel about the novel because the novel criticizes all the horrible events and incidents that happened during the Russian Revolution and it does not give any impacts or even influence my life. The novel is merely showing how Stalin used terror and communism to rule over the Soviet Union and it is not like I am going to be a communist and become a ruler like Stalin. The future that I am thinking to achieve has nothing to do with what Stalin did or the morals that people are trying to fish out. What morals are there? It is just part of the history. People or teachers say history is important part of my life but I do not care. They say you should not become a person like Stalin or let yourself be ruled by greed and obsession over power. To be honest, I hate the novel because I do not like history except for wars and I especially hate stories involving politics and political problems. Thus, this novel Animal Farm makes me feel bored and agitated.
