Description
Yevgeny Zamyatin's We is a dystopian novel that explores a totalitarian society where individuality is suppressed. Set in a future world, the story follows a mathematician who begins to question the all-powerful Benefactor and the society he lives in. In a world where creativity and passion are discouraged, the protagonist's discovery of his own individual soul sets off a chain of events that challenges the status quo. This powerful and thought-provoking work of science fiction was suppressed for many years in Russia, but its themes of individual freedom remain as relevant today as they were when it was first written. Clarence Brown's translation brings this influential novel to life, offering a vivid and exciting portrayal of a society that is both fascinating and unsettling.
