Led by the pigs, the most clever of the animals, the farm is renamed and the beasts set about running their world for their own benefit.\n\nBut power reshapes those who hold it. As the ambitious boar Napoleon consolidates control, the founding ideals are quietly rewritten, dissent is punished, and the promises of the revolution curdle into a tyranny that looks unsettlingly like the one it replaced. The other animals, loyal and hardworking, struggle to remember how things were meant to be.\n\nGeorge Orwell's short, savage fable uses a barnyard uprising to trace how revolutions are betrayed, how language is bent to serve power, and how easily the many can be ruled by the few. First published in 1945, it remains one of the most enduring political allegories ever written.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq7btjcxa4vbtavepan6rde.jpg","LFH.l;Hb8^{;81w~IXwO#^xUquO;",1997,"4.37",14,80,[87],{"id":88,"slug":89,"name":90},"01kjq7bthq3tev7x356jr612gb","george-orwell-8s8n","George Orwell",[92,93,97,101,105,109,113,117],{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":19},58,"Classics","classics",{"id":98,"name":99,"slug":100,"is_fiction":18},94,"Animals","animals",{"id":102,"name":103,"slug":104,"is_fiction":19},28,"Dystopian","dystopian",{"id":106,"name":107,"slug":108,"is_fiction":19},118,"Satire","satire",{"id":110,"name":111,"slug":112,"is_fiction":19},119,"Humor","humor",{"id":114,"name":115,"slug":116,"is_fiction":19},2,"Fantasy","fantasy",{"id":118,"name":119,"slug":120,"is_fiction":19},8,"Historical Fiction","historical-fiction",[],{"pace":123,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":124,"themes":126,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"fast",[125,66],"dark",[],{"id":128,"slug":129,"title":130,"description":131,"primary_cover_url":132,"cover_blurhash":133,"first_publish_year":134,"community_rating_avg":135,"community_rating_count":114,"page_count":136,"authors":137,"genres":142,"series":163,"enrichment":169},"01kjq7cgwnmnrbxay18n2jnjna","it-qmbl","It","In the fictional town of Derry, Maine, seven outcast children who call themselves the Losers' Club are hunted by an ancient, shapeshifting evil that feeds on fear and most often wears the face of Pennywise the Dancing Clown.

The Losers, now scattered adults who have half-forgotten what happened to them, are called back to Derry by a promise they made as children: to return and finish what they started. King tells their story through a nonlinear structure that braids the two eras together, so that childhood and adulthood, memory and present terror, bleed into one another.\n\nOne of Stephen King's most ambitious and enduring novels, It is at once an epic horror story and a meditation on childhood, memory, friendship, and the losses that come with growing up. Beneath the monster lies a portrait of a town poisoned by its own buried violence, and of the fragile, ferocious bonds that let a group of frightened kids stand against it.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz47pqkwte0s6rtqpsy783n.jpg","LJBp98oe56of_Nj]M{j[KiWV$jbH",1987,"4.00",1106,[138],{"id":139,"slug":140,"name":141},"01kjq7cgwx9qy9qa01epjzwzdx","stephen-king-qalr","Stephen King",[143,147,150,154,158,159],{"id":144,"name":145,"slug":146,"is_fiction":19},24,"Dark Fantasy","dark-fantasy",{"id":60,"name":148,"slug":149,"is_fiction":19},"Horror","horror",{"id":151,"name":152,"slug":153,"is_fiction":19},5,"Thriller","thriller",{"id":155,"name":156,"slug":157,"is_fiction":19},40,"Suspense","suspense",{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":160,"name":161,"slug":162,"is_fiction":19},51,"Cosmic Horror","cosmic-horror",[164],{"id":165,"slug":166,"name":167,"position":168,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kvkk2ddsk2cqbfehehtvhbjj","derry-aelz","Derry","1.00",{"pace":170,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":171,"themes":173,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"slow",[125,172],"nostalgic",[174,175],"found-family","dual-timeline",{"id":177,"slug":178,"title":179,"description":180,"primary_cover_url":181,"cover_blurhash":182,"first_publish_year":183,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":184,"authors":185,"genres":190,"series":194,"enrichment":195},"01kkfh1fjgahcsa4cd176gq30d","altot-almr-nw8b","التوت المر","التوت المر (The Bitter Mulberry) is a 1967 social-realist novel by the Tunisian writer Mohamed Laroussi el-Metoui, widely regarded as a landmark of modern Tunisian and Arabic literature.

His collision with a civilization that cannot understand grief, longing, or belief drives the novel toward its unsettling conclusion.\n\nBy turns satirical and chilling, Huxley's book interrogates the price of manufactured happiness and the loss of individuality in a technological age.

Winner of the first Nebula Award and co-winner of the Hugo, it founded one of science fiction's most influential universes and remains a touchstone of the genre.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz46djy3gb3tnw80jqgkv9r.jpg","LBMqO{}Fy@$L3Aj[wcae02g1k=WE",1965,"3.00",704,[364],{"id":365,"slug":366,"name":367},"01kjq7d2g1j1txbwyxt00thk7r","frank-herbert-fehf","Frank Herbert",[369,370,371,375,379,380,381],{"id":114,"name":115,"slug":116,"is_fiction":19},{"id":102,"name":103,"slug":104,"is_fiction":19},{"id":372,"name":373,"slug":374,"is_fiction":19},26,"Space Opera","space-opera",{"id":376,"name":377,"slug":378,"is_fiction":19},25,"Epic Fantasy","epic-fantasy",{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":219,"name":220,"slug":221,"is_fiction":19},{"id":300,"name":301,"slug":302,"is_fiction":19},[383],{"id":384,"slug":385,"name":356,"position":168,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kjq7d2ktgx21vjpcxqaszgx8","dune-zlrp",{"pace":170,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":387,"themes":389,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[388,125,66],"adventurous",[390,391],"chosen-one","court-intrigue",{"id":393,"slug":394,"title":395,"description":396,"primary_cover_url":397,"cover_blurhash":398,"first_publish_year":399,"community_rating_avg":400,"community_rating_count":114,"page_count":401,"authors":402,"genres":404,"series":427,"enrichment":428},"01kn0k43ee5bk97vhrnnsrfjtz","nineteen-eighty-four-3hhz","Nineteen Eighty-Four","Winston Smith works at the Ministry of Truth in Oceania, one of three perpetually warring super-states, where his job is to rewrite the historical record so that the Party is never wrong. Everywhere he goes, the face of Big Brother watches from posters and the ever-present telescreen watches back, recording every word and expression. Even a private thought against the Party is a crime punishable by death.\n\nWorn down by hunger, surveillance, and the deliberate poverty of daily life, Winston begins to keep a secret diary and to nurse a quiet, dangerous conviction that the past was different and the truth still exists somewhere outside the Party's control. When he falls into a forbidden love affair with a bold young woman named Julia, the two carve out a small world of their own and let themselves imagine resistance. Their rebellion draws the attention of the inner Party and the enigmatic official O'Brien, and Winston is forced to confront just how far a total state will go to own not only a person's actions but their mind.\n\nGeorge Orwell's 1949 novel gave the language \"Big Brother,\" \"doublethink,\" \"thoughtcrime,\" and \"Newspeak,\" and remains one of the most influential warnings ever written about totalitarianism, propaganda, and the manipulation of truth. Bleak, exact, and unsparing, it is a study of how power sustains itself by controlling memory, language, and love.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kn0k43ee5bk97vhrnnsrfjtz.jpg","LLNtnM0ey@%MRjaexFt7{z-BOXn%",1949,"3.75",238,[403],{"id":88,"slug":89,"name":90},[405,406,410,411,415,416,420,424,425,426],{"id":102,"name":103,"slug":104,"is_fiction":19},{"id":407,"name":408,"slug":409,"is_fiction":18},74,"Politics & Society","politics-society",{"id":330,"name":331,"slug":332,"is_fiction":19},{"id":412,"name":413,"slug":414,"is_fiction":18},86,"Essays","essays",{"id":114,"name":115,"slug":116,"is_fiction":19},{"id":417,"name":418,"slug":419,"is_fiction":19},41,"Psychological Thriller","psychological-thriller",{"id":421,"name":422,"slug":423,"is_fiction":19},214,"Political Thriller","political-thriller",{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":19},{"id":219,"name":220,"slug":221,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":62,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":429,"themes":430,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[125,351],[],{"id":432,"slug":433,"title":434,"description":435,"primary_cover_url":436,"cover_blurhash":437,"first_publish_year":438,"community_rating_avg":135,"community_rating_count":439,"page_count":440,"authors":441,"genres":450,"series":459,"enrichment":460},"01kjqxgrxx8nwv7ch69fywx6kq","the-catcher-in-the-rye-6goi","The Catcher in the Rye","Since its publication in 1951, J. D. Salinger's only novel has become one of the defining portraits of adolescent alienation in American literature. Over the course of a few restless winter days, sixteen-year-old Holden Caulfield narrates his flight from Pencey Prep — the latest boarding school to expel him — into the streets of New York City, where he drifts from hotel bars to Central Park, from an old teacher's apartment to a carousel in the rain, unwilling to go home and face his parents.\n\nHolden's voice is the novel's engine: caustic, funny, evasive, and quietly grieving. He rails against the \"phoniness\" of the adult world while circling the losses he can barely name — chief among them the death of his younger brother — and clings to a fantasy of protecting childhood innocence, imagining himself as the \"catcher in the rye\" who keeps children from falling off a cliff.\n\nA landmark of postwar fiction and a perennial fixture of banned-book lists, The Catcher in the Rye endures because Holden's confusion, tenderness, and refusal to grow up still read as painfully honest. It is a short, deceptively simple book about depression, connection, and the terror of leaving childhood behind.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ktfjh91467zf34j97snhn4z0.jpg?v=14021383c2","LGJ%]:9ZR.s:~TR-WBofA0n$s,j=",1951,6,256,[442,446],{"id":443,"slug":444,"name":445},"01kjqxgs07cx76zherew1q7czv","shao-jia-yun-b2ex","Shao jia yun",{"id":447,"slug":448,"name":449},"01kjqxgryhnattzqhsc3cmzvr2","j-d-salinger-bxn6","J.

With Voldemort in control of the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts no longer safe, Harry, Hermione, and Ron abandon the school and go on the run, tasked with finding and destroying the remaining Horcruxes — the objects in which Voldemort has hidden fragments of his soul to achieve immortality.\n\nThe hunt is gruelling and often near-hopeless. The three friends are isolated, hunted, and fractured by the pressure; the Wizarding World they are fighting for is collapsing around them. Threading through their quest is a second mystery: the legend of the Deathly Hallows — three objects said to make their possessor the master of death itself.\n\nThe book builds to a climax at Hogwarts that resolves every major thread of the series with a structural precision that reveals how meticulously the entire seven-book arc was planned. Rowling has spoken about the King's Cross chapter — in which Harry stands between life and death — as the most personally meaningful passage she wrote, drawing on her own meditations on mortality and faith. The series' final word, after years of planning, is 'scar.'","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kmz7246y6n7d1mqmx9y1jj5f.jpg","LyLL%9xD%0WE}pjFR+WCRQWCR+s.",2007,"5.00",[479,483],{"id":480,"slug":481,"name":482},"01kjq6wezv5p3d2q4859b4yr8b","j-k-rowling-vwul","J.

A single fatal brawl sends events spiraling beyond anyone's control, and a desperate plan to keep them together sets in motion one of literature's most famous tragedies.\n\nWilliam Shakespeare's tragedy of \"star-crossed lovers\" remains the definitive story of young love thwarted by hatred, chance, and haste — a play whose language, characters, and heartbreak have shaped how the Western world imagines romance for more than four centuries.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz6s5j7x45h1rw02tte2mvz.jpg","LdJHgSf6xtoe~VWCV@ay?aayRjfj","3.70",107,[712],{"id":713,"slug":714,"name":715},"01kjq7eyjb5ehy0zsfypwhbrqj","william-shakespeare-ys9o","William Shakespeare",[717,720,724,728,729,730,731,732],{"id":84,"name":718,"slug":719,"is_fiction":19},"Plays","plays",{"id":721,"name":722,"slug":723,"is_fiction":18},70,"History","history",{"id":725,"name":726,"slug":727,"is_fiction":18},92,"Science","science",{"id":330,"name":331,"slug":332,"is_fiction":19},{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":54,"name":664,"slug":665,"is_fiction":19},{"id":118,"name":119,"slug":120,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":123,"complexity":7,"audience":503,"mood":735,"themes":736,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[644,125],[737],"forbidden-love",{"id":739,"slug":740,"title":741,"description":742,"primary_cover_url":743,"cover_blurhash":744,"first_publish_year":745,"community_rating_avg":746,"community_rating_count":219,"page_count":747,"authors":748,"genres":753,"series":757,"enrichment":762},"01kjr346t391d0ga0g3kvx2gyh","letranger-cbz4","L’étranger","L'Étranger (The Stranger) is Albert Camus's landmark 1942 novel and the cornerstone of his \"cycle of the absurd.\" Narrated in flat, unsparing first person, it follows Meursault, a French Algerian clerk who greets his mother's death, a new romance, and the ordinary business of living with the same detached indifference.\n\nOn a blinding hot beach outside Algiers, an almost arbitrary encounter ends in violence, and the second half of the book turns Meursault's life into a trial, less about the act itself than about his refusal to weep, to believe, or to pretend to feelings he does not have.

Alongside the ordinary tensions of adolescence runs the constant, unspoken fear of discovery, and a remarkable, hard-won faith in human goodness.\n\nThe diary ends abruptly in August 1944, when the annex was betrayed and its occupants deported; Anne died in Bergen-Belsen the following year.

It opens in 1491, on the eve of the fall of Granada, the last Muslim kingdom in Iberia, and follows the household of Abu Jaafar, a Granadan bookbinder, across five generations as their world is slowly, systematically dismantled.\n\nThrough the family's marriages, births, and losses, the trilogy traces what it meant to live through conquest: the broken promises of the victors, the public burning of Arabic books, forced baptism and the banning of language and dress, the terror of the Inquisition, and the final expulsion of the Moriscos. Some of Abu Jaafar's descendants try to assimilate and survive in silence; others join the doomed resistance in the mountains; the healer Saleema pays a terrible price for her learning; and each must decide how to hold on to faith, memory, and identity as everything familiar is stripped away.\n\nComprising the novels Granada, Maryama, and Departure, Ashour's trilogy is a landmark of modern Arabic literature—an intimate, elegiac meditation on loss, resilience, and cultural erasure, told with quiet lyricism and deep historical feeling.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfh06x5zgvzzppeqfpny5yc.jpg","LWIzRyo04=s.}:oetPaz=vazX8a|",1994,502,[864,868],{"id":865,"slug":866,"name":867},"01kkfh06wx5sw8qjd435dpwpjx","radwa-ashour-fbup","Radwa Ashour",{"id":869,"slug":870,"name":871},"01kkfh06x2v8wcdv9qdwd81cvr","rdo-aaashor-xfct","رضوى عاشور",[873,874,875,876],{"id":118,"name":119,"slug":120,"is_fiction":19},{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":721,"name":722,"slug":723,"is_fiction":18},[878],{"id":879,"slug":880,"name":881,"position":168,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kkfh06y120bvxmatsvmfc50w","the-granada-trilogy-g7bv","The Granada Trilogy",{"pace":170,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":883,"themes":884,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[67,66],[849],{"id":886,"slug":887,"title":888,"description":889,"primary_cover_url":890,"cover_blurhash":891,"first_publish_year":892,"community_rating_avg":400,"community_rating_count":54,"page_count":893,"authors":894,"genres":903,"series":912,"enrichment":913},"01kkfgz1vctwec7a0ed8xwxpfk","alagnh-almtksr-pvi3","الأجنحة المتكسرة","The Broken Wings is Kahlil Gibran's early Arabic novella, a lyrical tale of doomed love set in early twentieth-century Beirut.

Through their tenderness and their suffering, Gibran mounts a searching critique of arranged marriage, religious power, and the constrained lives of women.\n\nWritten in Gibran's characteristically poetic, aphoristic prose, The Broken Wings is a foundational work of modern Arabic literature and an early expression of the spiritual and reformist themes that would later reach the wider world in The Prophet.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfgz1xqy92c0pysx7e0mex5.jpg","LeMtUCNG_MV@?^ozRPt7={r=NGoz",1912,102,[895,899],{"id":896,"slug":897,"name":898},"01kjxg2qpngmdn17tk2sha438z","kahlil-gibran-zxdc","Kahlil Gibran",{"id":900,"slug":901,"name":902},"01kkfgz1xh2eajfc27wrfg04f4","throt-aakash-rldn","ثروت عكاشة",[904,905,909,910,911],{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":19},{"id":906,"name":907,"slug":908,"is_fiction":19},13,"Poetry","poetry",{"id":304,"name":305,"slug":306,"is_fiction":18},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":54,"name":664,"slug":665,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":170,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":914,"themes":915,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[67,644,66],[737,916],"marriage-of-convenience",{"id":918,"slug":919,"title":920,"description":921,"primary_cover_url":922,"cover_blurhash":923,"first_publish_year":924,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":925,"authors":926,"genres":935,"series":939,"enrichment":944},"01krp0c9mtz8h7vs8xff92zjb6","aars-alzyn-mbyk","عرس الزين","Meet Zien, a man unlike any other, who greeted the world with laughter instead of a cry and whose peculiar appearance sets him apart.

His neighbor is Jay Gatsby, a self-made millionaire famous for the lavish parties he throws every weekend, though almost no one knows where his fortune came from or what he truly wants.\n\nThrough Nick, we learn that Gatsby's glittering displays are all in service of a single obsession: Daisy Buchanan, the woman he loved before the war and who is now married to the wealthy, brutish Tom Buchanan. As Nick is drawn into the tangled lives of the East Egg and West Egg elite, the distance between old money and new, between illusion and reality, becomes impossible to bridge.\n\nF. Scott Fitzgerald's 1925 novel is a compact, lyrical portrait of the Jazz Age and a piercing critique of the American Dream. Its symbols — the green light across the bay, the fading eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleburg, the valley of ashes — have become part of the language, and its story of longing, class, and self-invention remains one of the most enduring in American literature.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz6hf6gv7fy0wsfvyj48kyt.jpg","LEI4;ktT?dMb0DNFR%%ND-RMNMOb",1925,"4.27",[1045],{"id":1046,"slug":1047,"name":1048},"01kjq7ncwv2mv5skbjcyd77dvs","f-scott-fitzgerald-mpl7","F.

His wish is granted. As Dorian, encouraged by the cynical, epigram-spouting Lord Henry Wotton, gives himself over to a life of pleasure, cruelty, and corruption, his face remains untouched — while the portrait, hidden away, grows monstrous with every sin.\n\nOscar Wilde's only novel is a dark fable of aestheticism, vanity, and moral consequence, as sharp in its wit as it is unsettling in its horror. Around Dorian's unchanging beauty, Wilde builds a Faustian parable about the cost of a life lived purely for sensation, and a portrait of Victorian society's obsession with surface and youth.\n\nFirst published in 1890 and expanded the following year, the book scandalised its first readers and remains one of the most enduring works of Gothic and philosophical fiction in English.","https:\u002F\u002Fcovers.openlibrary.org\u002Fb\u002Fid\u002F15156805-L.jpg","L06a#84:01%20500~l_1?I02~T-:",1890,"4.55",[1151,1155],{"id":1152,"slug":1153,"name":1154},"01kjqtyw338nszf68q3cd3wx0q","oscar-wilde-e6uf","Oscar Wilde",{"id":1156,"slug":1157,"name":1158},"01km6s1x9ssy8cykv6n0qy1by3","jennifer-wicke-skbg","Jennifer Wicke",[1160,1161,1162,1163,1164,1168,1169,1170],{"id":114,"name":115,"slug":116,"is_fiction":19},{"id":334,"name":335,"slug":336,"is_fiction":18},{"id":721,"name":722,"slug":723,"is_fiction":18},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1165,"name":1166,"slug":1167,"is_fiction":19},47,"Gothic","gothic",{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":19},{"id":304,"name":305,"slug":306,"is_fiction":18},{"id":60,"name":148,"slug":149,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":62,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":1173,"themes":1174,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[125,66],[],{"id":314,"slug":315,"title":316,"description":317,"primary_cover_url":318,"cover_blurhash":319,"first_publish_year":320,"community_rating_avg":321,"community_rating_count":29,"page_count":322,"authors":1176,"genres":1178,"series":1186,"enrichment":1188},[1177],{"id":325,"slug":326,"name":327},[1179,1180,1181,1182,1183,1184,1185],{"id":330,"name":331,"slug":332,"is_fiction":19},{"id":334,"name":335,"slug":336,"is_fiction":18},{"id":219,"name":220,"slug":221,"is_fiction":19},{"id":102,"name":103,"slug":104,"is_fiction":19},{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":342,"name":343,"slug":344,"is_fiction":19},[1187],{"id":347,"slug":348,"name":316,"position":168,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},{"pace":62,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":1189,"themes":1190,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[125,66,351],[],[]]
