Question 5 *Animal Farm*

What is the mood of this novel? Do you find this novel saddens you in any way? Why?

I do not know that it can be the mood or not but when I think of this novel’s mood, always my first word is betrayal. The world for someone who does not know what is going on between pigs is hard workers’ world; the world for pigs is materialism world. The seven commandments are keeping changing as the time goes to satisfy Napoleon’s effects. Napoleon has forced out Snowball from the farm because Snowball was the obstacle for maintaining Napoleon’s power. Once, Snowball and Napoleon were comrades but Napoleon forced Snowball out with his selfish mind. So, Napoleon gets the reputation from the animals. This part has astonished me when I compared to my life. If there is betray between the animals then between the people, there will be another betray. Friend is person who I love but if they betray me, it is same as losing my hope. Therefore, Betrayal finally leads animals into desperation. As the betrayal mood is going on, animal farm is having more hard time than ever. Rebellion against the people was also has come from betrayal mood because the animals have betrayed their owner. Hard workers’ world at first gives animal peaceful and joyful mood but as the time passes; they are getting harder time than whomever in the farm because they are too pure to understand so they just suffer hardship without understanding what is going on, exactly. So, joyful, peaceful and harmonious mood is disappearing with betrayals. The materialism world is symbol of pig’s authority. Pig’s power makes up the scary, violent and rainy mood. The mood that came from materialism world is the saddest mood in this story because originally pigs were clever but they have become fool to the love in the world. Pigs are losing their love in their heart to get their authority. This novel is exciting but this novel’s mood and scene are sorrowful things.
