About this Event

Once bleakly satirical masterpiece on totalitarianism, now Scots Language Book of the Year, George Orwell’s Animal Farm still casts its shadow over everything we think we know about politics, equality and the power of language. Now refreshed and renewed in a stunning new Scots language translation, the book invites us to ask – do words still matter? Can politicians really be trusted? Does Scots still have a place in the modern world? Join translator Thomas Clark on a fascinating journey through Orwell, Scots and the language we use today.
