Analysis of Writing Style in Animal Farm
Introduction
George Orwell is one of the most important writers in British literature in the early 20th century and honored as the most influential political writers in the 20th century. George is known as political novelist owing to his life experiences. “He lives through the two World Wars, and participates in the Spanish Civil War. He witnesses the oppression of imperialism and fascism, so he hates the exploitation of monopoly capitalism”(Gross 59). At the same time, he also witnesses the Soviet totalitarianism and hates the Stalinist totalitarianism because Stalin exploits people in the name of revolution and distorts the truth of the communist programme. Orwell expresses his dissatisfaction and anger in the form of literature with keen insight and sharp writing style to record the world that he has lived. He uses irony, symbols and other literature techniques to  vividly portray his ideal dystopian world. 《动物庄园》的写作风格分析:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_35684.html
