Snowball’s Chance

Written in 14 days shortly after the September 11th attacks, Snowball’s Chance is an outrageous and unauthorised ‘sequel’ to George Orwell’s Animal Farm, in which exiled pig Snowball returns to the farm, takes charge and implements a new world order of untrammeled capitalism. Orwell’s ’All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others’ has morphed into the new rallying cry: ‘All animals are born equal – what they become is their own affair.’
