Popular culture has a selective memory when it comes to the significance of historical events. But telling lesser-remembered stories with fictional protagonists can bring them alive again.
It's that rediscovery of patterns and connections, often hidden in plain sight, which has been the inspiration for my writing. I hope you enjoy it.

The story of the EEC and the EU, up to 2009, told in the allegorical style of Animal Farm.
"As a higher animal, he knew it was his duty not to tax the brains of the lower animals with thoughts which would be too complex for them, and only cause distress." - Sunflower the Goat
"She had sought to make economies in the farm's outgoings wherever possible, cutting the milk ration to the younger animals and even going to the extent of selling Korolsky's family silver." - Duchess the Mare
"... failure to adopt the Working Conditions Edict would mean a dangerous lack of valuable new rules on how to run fields, rules which no farm could do without, which wanted to think of itself as modern." - Windy the Goat
"'This is a piece of paper for our time,' he proclaimed, his long grey face serious on the outside." - Normandsky the All-grey Donkey
"He had tired of the unwillingness of any animal in the county to listen to, let alone understand Tertiary Deviationism, so had resigned as Chair, going to the neighbouring counties to be paid to explain his philosophy there." - Scratcher the Pig
"He did not understand why the ordinary animals were upset at being denied their Vote of Confidence and did not understand why they were so opposed to a simple Common Bartering arrangement with the neighbouring farms." - Angus the Cart-horse
