Animal Farm - George Orwell

My latest read was "Animal Farm" by George Orwell. I read this on my way back from San Diego.  Its a classic which I had never read. I dont think I had even heard of it until recently. I think Orwell's writing in the 1950's still resonates with the theory of Chomsky that Power can drive humans the wrong way and kill  ideas which had the noblest of intentions. " One could characterize this novel as a perfect portrayal of a world where absolute power corrupts absolutely."
