Audible via Amazon has Animal Farm (Audible Audiobook – Unabridged) by George Orwell for $0.82.

Amazon also has Animal Farm (Kindle eBook) by George Orwell for $0.99
  • About this book: George Orwell's timeless and timely allegorical novel - a scathing satire on a downtrodden society's blind march towards totalitarianism. The book tells the story of a group of farm animals who rebel against their human farmer, hoping to create a society where the animals can be equal, free, and happy. Ultimately, however, the rebellion is betrayed, and the farm ends up in a state as bad as it was before, under the dictatorship of a pig named Napoleon. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, under whatever banner, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell's masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh.
Thanks to Slickdeals Staff Member JZ1989 for finding this deal.

Taking a break from the high school debate club for a second...

Did anybody else get different books in the Kindle version of 10 masterpieces 2?

Amazon.com matches the post, but the book starts with The Richest Man in Babylon and finishes with The Iliad, but is missing books like the Great Gatsby, Emma, etc but has Hound of the Baskervilles and Sense and Sensibility.

The audible matches the description.

Quote from catbert :
You beat me to it. The founding fathers figured out the government is definitely going to do this authoritarian shit if we let them, but it was before planes and internet that they didn't realize foreign dictators (like the Chinese Communist Party) can do the same thing through bribing private citizens and businesses and bribe politicians with lucrative business deals after their terms, and use them as the meat-shield against the free democracy itself.

The USSR had been doing that to their own people, but didn't get too far doing it to other countries because they didn't get rich enough to bribe a lot of elites generously. Communist China is the new USSR, except that they have way more USD and tech at their disposal. We'll need to starve them from USD first by all means necessary if we are to keep our freedoms.
China is the least of our problems, enemy is within, they value safety more than freedom in all things.

Actually the enemy from within IS engineered by Chinese Communist Party (not China, the CCP is taking China hostage, CCP IS NOT CHINA) spending years infiltrating America and corrupting our people and turning them into our enemy from within. This is why Communist China is the WORST of our problems. Our enemy from within is just the weak-links.

If you are talking about the far-leftists or Bush-Republicans (like the Lincoln Project thugs), they don't give a rat's ass about safety. They were just fear-mongering and use safety as a faux excuse to concentrate power for themselves. And yes, they are close to Communist China, deeply influenced and bribed by CCP. Eric Spywell is just the tip of the iceberg. China Daily (CCP's official propaganda outlet) calls Bush family "the old friend of China", which is a code-word for politicians they control (it's an open secret in the Chinese-speaking areas). Not to mention the far-leftists shares the same Soviet origins as Communist China so they are basically cousins.

Watch this from Poland, a country of victims of authoritarianism from both sides, communists and Hitler, interviewing with the victims of #ChiNazi communism from Hong Kong.

America is next. Soviet/Communist China has always declared us as enemies publicly since their inception. It's just that we didn't take them seriously back then and underestimated how deceitful they are.

Hear Hong Kong Now or Be Hong Kong Soon.

Quote from agentghost :
what does it mean by "account on hold"? So I can't use my account for 3 months?
Normally subscribers get a new credit and pay for a credit once a month. Putting your account on hold stops this for 3 months so you can catch up, or use your credits and quit.

It's book genocide. Also, copyrights were meant to expire. If you knew he history of copyright law you, should be, outraged.
Seuss himself has only been dead for 30 years. If you want to argue for copyrights expiring on a different time scale go for it but that is still not the same as books being taken away.

Quote from mpetrovsky :
It is a citation from the book that defines pretty much any society. Anarchist, democratic or ruled by a single iron fist. Extreme left, centric or extreme right.
All animal are equal. But some are, how would I put it? More privileged....
We all are subjects to the same rules and laws. Just to a different extent.
Some of us are allowed and can do what others cannot.
But, yes, we all are equal. And I have no doubt that you, my reader, has the same chance in court of law as governor of a state you live in.
Privilege isn't equality so I'm not sure how "more equal" evokes the idea of "more privileged" in your mind. It's an interesting phrase since being "more equal" is evocative nonsense, but at it's core it's just that, nonsense.

Yes let's talk about inequality in society, no let's not use non-literal nonsense speech that subverts the true definitions of words in order to do it. Politicians have undue privilege, I agree. Why not just say that?

You can make 1 three month hold, perhaps do it a few months before your annual renews. Then use up your credits awhile it's still in suspended state. Then cancel if want.

I'm not sure if the 3 month thing can be broken down into, say, 3 one month holds.

Quote from snitzle_iii :
I am new to audiobooks. If I purchase do I keep the audio version forever. Amazon says free with audible trial. Never used audible
You keep the books even if you are no longer a member. They lock you in to a monthy auto-renewal that gets you 1 credit a month. If you want to stop it can be hard because if, say, you have 2 credits, and it takes you 2 months to find 2 books, you still have 2 credits becase you were billed 2 more times/months. So, puting on hold is a good way to use them up and then quit for awhile. If you quit with credits, you lose those credits you paid for.
Also, if you don't like a book, don't hesitate to change it out every once in awhile, they will do that.
