I have decided to go for the "Adult Fiction Cover Award" which was to redesign the book cover for the classical fiction novel Animal Farm, by George Orwell. I wanted to use the pig Napoleon as a central figure for the book cover in a subliminal way as if you have to imagine that is the character it is portrayed. He is wearing an uniform which resembles the uniform of Joseph Stalin, as the book is a satire and makes references to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.
