We. Zamyatin E.

The hero of the novel “We”-a mathematician and an engineer-lives in a giant city-state, separated by a wall from the outside world. It seems to him that everything here is arranged correctly and reasonably: people instead of names have a number, wear the same clothes, their life is strictly regulated. But gradually the hero begins to understand that in this perfectly organized society there is no place for freedom and love. The novel "We", written in 1921, was considered a satire on the communist system; Only in 1988, Russian readers got the opportunity to get acquainted with the main work of Evgeny Zamyatin.
