General Fiction我们
(russia) Yevgeny Zamyatin
What will happen to the world when there is no "I" but only "us"? In the unified country of the 26th century, people are highly unified. They have no names, only numbers.

Zamyatin accurately predicted the future of mankind, the future of the country, and even the future of the universe... The first work of the dystopian trilogy; the source work that directly influenced "1984" and "Brave New World"; includes Orwell's unabridged version of the preface; a comprehensive introduction to the 10,000-word long text, an exclusive and comprehensive exploration of Zamyatin's twists and turns of life and the background of the times; George Orwell praised: a literary wonder in the era of book burning.

(russia) Yevgeny Zamyatin

General Fiction我们
(russia) Yevgeny Zamyatin
The unified country of the 26th century is a totalitarian country where everyone has only a number and no name, lives in a completely transparent glass house, wears the same uniform, eats chemical food, enjoys a rationed sex life, and is ruled by an all-powerful "benefactor" who never changes. Political police are everywhere, and happiness and freedom are incompatible. However, totalitarianism cannot extinguish the brilliance of human nature, and the pursuit of freedom has never stopped... The classic combination of Eugene Zamyatin's "Us", Huxley's "Brave New World", George Orwell's "1984" and the "Dystopian Trilogy".
