Climax *Animal Farm*


What is the climax of this novel? What happens? How do the events of this novel make you feel?
-The climax of ‘Animal Farm’ is when Napoleon seizes control of the farm. He makes lies that lead Snowball to banishment. When Napoleon gains full control over the farm, he acts like a tyrant with his dogs at his sides as bodyguards. When his rival Snowball has totally disappeared from the farm, he commands to the other animals like Mr. Jones. Then, he sells Boxer, the naive worker, to butchery.
I was surprised when I read the part about Napoleon selling Boxer to the butchery. How can he sell one of his comrades for not being able to work anymore? I could understand Napoleon when he banished Snowball from the farm because of the sense of rivalry. But I couldn't’t accept his behavior toward Boxer. He was acting the same way as Mr. Jones! I thought he was even worse than Mr. Jones. In the beginning, all the animals said that they are not going to use any objects that people have used, including Napoleon. But how come Napoleon sold his comrade to a HUMAN? Napoleon was one of the one character that made me furious while reading. His different behavior toward his comrade was very displeasing. In this climax, I was not only mad at Napoleon, but also at other animals. I couldn't’t understand why they didn’t have a single sense that Napoleon was going to do something to Boxer. They were too naive! If I were one of the animals, I would have complained about Napoleon's act with other animals.
This climax was very powerful, controlling the readers’ mind. I, personally was very mad when I read it.
