We

We are the iconic novel by Yevgeny Zamyatin, from which the existence of the dystopian genre is officially counted.
Forbidden during the Soviet period, it is now considered one of the cult works not only of Russian but also of world... literature of the 20th century.
This novel is about a society of equals, in which the human personality is reduced to a number.
Everything is standardized in it – clothing and apartments, thoughts and feelings. There is neither family nor strong attachments… Dmitry Bykov said this well: The author very accurately and convincingly described a utopia of reason, closed in on itself, doomed to solitude, deprived of contact with the outside world.
According to Zamyatin's idea, the main tragedy is that a person can conquer the beast within, retreat into a pure realm of rationality, which will prove fatal for humanity.
