Inhaltsangabe

George Orwell’ s Animal Farm told a wry and sardonic fable of communism in a dystopic collective farm. Snowball’ s Chance parodies Orwell by firing a broadside at the casino economy and the culture of the good life. In a brilliantly conceived and executed riposte to the marketplace’ s unthinking cheerleaders, Reed’ s Snowball, the Pig ousted from the Animal Farm for rationality, returns to bring marketeering to the farm. Snowball’ s Chance is a wildly scathing, landmark novel by New York author John Reed. Written in lower Manhattan, near Ground Zero, in the three weeks following September 11, Reed’ s story is surprisingly populated, not by Americans and Islamists, but by a motley array of farm and woodland animals who act out American history and its fallout. Reed’ s novel addresses the events of last year concisely and precisely to target the follies of today’ s entrepreneurs and religionists alike.
