We


Lu par mleigh

(3.9 stars; 14 reviews)

We is considered to be one of the first dystopian novels and the inspiration for later novels in the genre such as George Orwell's 1984 and Aldus Huxley's Brave New World. The story takes place in a future totalitarian world where conformity is good and individuality bad. It is written from the perspective of one of the members of this society who sees all he knows and loves falling apart due to others' quest for freedom of thought and action.

This book addresses the perpetual conflict between between independent individualism and mob mentality.

This work, by Russian author Yevgeny Zamyatin has the distinction of being the first book banned by the Soviet Union. (6 hr 35 min)
