We. Russian anti -utopia

The fantastic novel-antiopia "We" E Zamyatin was written in 1920 and largely influenced the main anti-utopia of the twentieth century "On the marvelous new world" O. Huxley and "1984" George Orwell. The novel “We” describes the society of rigid totalitarian control over the personality (names and surnames are replaced by letters and numbers, the state controls even an intimate life), ideologically based on the denial of fantasy, controlled by the “Blessed” of the “Blessed”.
The proposed publication contains not only the legendary novel-antiopia, but also a number of journalistic articles describing the writer’s political views, his attitude to the historical events, which he became an eyewitness.
"Real literature can only be where it is not made by executive and complacent officials, but by madmen, hermits, heretics, dreamers, rebels, skeptics" (article "I am afraid")
