Animal Farm
by George Orwell

Animal Farm Chapter 6 Summary

  • The animals work "like slaves." Heavy irony ensues.
  • Napoleon starts engaging in trade with the neighboring farms. "Wait a minute," you might say, "I thought there was a rule against trade!" Yeah. That’s what the animals thought, too. Talk to Squealer. They also move into the farmhouse. Talk to Squealer again.
  • Snowball becomes the scapegoat, which is particularly convenient when the windmill blows down in a gale.
