Let us imagine the impossible: George Orwell’s Animal Farm suddenly came to life and was granted a second birth. A reincarnation, perhaps? Such things do happen, after all…

Many years have passed since the Revolution, the one that old Major the boar called upon the animals of Animal Farm to rise against their masters. The World has changed — values have shifted, the collective consciousness has morphed. Do you believe that? Of course — some do, some don’t. For some, it’s still the same World it always was; for others, global transformation is plain to see. Generations pass, and each new one makes its own choices — sometimes of epic scope. Wise choices, foolish ones — in short, all sorts. And the World? The World must go on, wrapped in those decisions.

Animal Farm: Exodus — that is the title of this continuation. It is not fan fiction, not imitation, not Orwell (though you will hardly be able to escape his spirit and energy). It is what will soon come to pass, whether we like it or not.

Therefore, allow me to present my novel here. I shall do so chapter by chapter, beginning with the Preface and concluding with Chapter XVI — the final chapter in the chronicle of the pigs and the inhabitants of Animal Farm.
