edit request on 12 Dec 2018
Think is important to note that it was written in 1943. Source could be JOURNAL ARTICLE Revolution on Animal Farm: Orwell's Neglected Commentary V. C. Letemendia Journal of Modern Literature Vol. 18, No. 1 (Winter, 1992), pp. 127-137 (11 pages) at https://www.jstor.org/stable/3831551 where at P. 132 quoting Orwell author reports ... he did not mean pigs and men to appear reconciled completely at the end of the book. On the contrary "I meant it to end on a loud note of discord, for I wrote it immediately after the Teheran Conference [parodied by the final scene in Animal Farm] .." CEJL, III, pp. 459-59
Link for Preface
Here is a link for the preface. Can someone add it to main article, so that people know where the quote is coming from. https://www.orwellfoundation.com/the-orwell-foundation/orwell/essays-and-other-works/the-freedom-of-the-press/
Stage adaptations of Animal Farm -- request for addition
I wish to note that the list of stage adaptations of "Animal Farm" in this article is incomplete. The first version, adapted by Nelson S. Bond and published by Samuel French, Inc. in 1964 (still in print) is still widely performed (example one) (example two) (example three)

This is the caption to an illustration:
"Foreign Office copy of the first instalment of Norman Pett's Animal Farm comic strip. This example was commissioned by the Information Research Department, a secret wing of the Foreign Office which delt with disinformation, pro-colonial, and anti-communist propaganda during the Cold War"
Readers come to Wikipedia from all over the world. Most people will have no idea what country the "Foreign Office" refers to, or what this office does. 2601:200:C000:1A0:8C8F:BFFB:41E6:A073 (talk) 13:37, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- It is explained in the accompanying paragraph Animal_Farm#Comic_strip. Tony Holkham (Talk) 13:47, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
