Alegorická novela začíná vzpourou zvířat, která vyženou majitele farmy a začnou si vládnout sama. Zprvu ušlechtilé, idealistické myšlenky o rovnosti, svobodě a blahobytu záhy berou za své a jejich místo postupně zaujme propaganda, nesvoboda a totalitní diktatura. Vláda zvířat ctí posvátných sedm přikázání, z nichž nejdůležitější je to sedmé – Všechna zvířata jsou si rovna! Jak se ale ukáže, některá jsou si rovnější… Bajka, která byla dokončena v roce 1944 se s odstupem času stala kultovním dílem, které nastavuje zrcadlo všem podobám diktatury.
