“The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.”

Never really got round to reading this one, while it's widely regarded a classic. Very short read and accessibly written analogy of the Russian Revolution.

Interesting thought experiment on collective memory, shares a lot of concepts with 1984.
