In a 1948 letter to his editor Roger Senshouse, he discussed his intention in writing the book: To Orwell, this move was a portent of the future, roughly outlined by the political theorist James Burnham, who had predicted that most of the globe would be controlled by three superstates, with totalitarian governments ruled by a managerial class, “the Party.” Although Orwell rejected most of Burnham’s conclusions, he accepted the principle of the three superstates and the notion that they would be regularly at war with one another. It was clear that Stalin had designs on Eastern Europe, not as part of an overt empire, but as nominally independent countries with communist governments. But there surfaced in the course of the conference significant differences, over wartime strategy to be sure, but also over the nature and extent of the spoils to be claimed by the victors. The conference marked the first meeting of the Big Three, Joseph Stalin, Winston Churchill, and Franklin Roosevelt, who convened to discuss Allied strategy for the remainder of the war, which by that time (October/November 1943) pointed to victory in Europe within the next two years. He chose to end Animal Farm with a parody of the Teheran Conference in 1943. (Although later generations would judge that he had already achieved that goal in an earlier book, Homage to Catalonia, the recognition of that achievement did not occur in his lifetime.) The beast fable had provided him an ideal form to expose the Stalinist regime and to emphasize the danger of revolutionaries who are motivated by the lust for power rather than for justice. In Animal Farm, Orwell had realized his goal of making political writing an art.
