La ferme des animaux

In this French graphic novel adaptation of George Orwell’s classic allegory, the animals of Manor Farm rise up to overthrow their human master, only to see their revolutionary ideals corrupted by the pigs who seize power. Published by L’échappée in 2016, this single-issue comic distills the novel’s political satire into a stark, visually driven narrative. The project is most associated with its artist and writer, who translate Orwell’s timeless critique of totalitarianism into a compact, striking comic form. It matters as a faithful yet fresh retelling that makes the story accessible to a new generation of readers.
