WHAT IF ANIMAL FARM HAD GONE CAPITALIST? His ebony plumage blighted by a single white feather, a defective crow vows to redeem himself in the only way a crow can: by making mischief and chaos on a grand scale. To that end, he foments an uprising of farm animals, and goads them into the creative destruction of democratic capitalism. But the path to redemption only becomes clear when a renegade jungle beast hijacks the whole venture.... Laisses-faire capitalism has proven to be a raw deal for millions of ordinary Americans, and few resent it more sorely than dedicated slackers like Kevin Wolf Caldwell. I've always been content to just coast through life, says the longtime resident of Venice, California, but in today's economy, it's like trying to coast uphill. Against the forces that would make his life difficult, Caldwell's retribution takes the form of his farcical novel, Freedom Farm---a re-imagining of Orwell's classic. It's a barnyard saga of greedy pigs, lily-livered chickens, and grazing sheep---all of it told by a mischievous crow, and set against a backdrop of rural squalor befitting the state of the American experiment.
