A seminal work of dystopian fiction that foreshadowed the worst excesses of Soviet Russia, Yevgeny Zamyatin's We is a powerfully inventive vision that has influenced writers from George Orwell to Ayn Rand. This Penguin Classics edition is translated from the Russian with an introduction by Clarence Brown. In a glass-enclosed city of absolute straight lines, ruled over by the all-powerful 'Benefactor', the citizens of the totalitarian society of OneState live out lives devoid of passion and creativity - until D-503, a mathematician who dreams in numbers, makes a discovery: he has an individual soul. Set in the twenty-sixth century AD, We is the classic dystopian novel and was the forerunner of works such as George Orwell's 1984 and Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. It was suppressed for many years in Russia and remains a resounding cry for individual freedom, yet is also a powerful, exciting and vivid work of science fiction. Clarence Brown's brilliant translation is based on the corrected text of the novel, first published in Russia in 1988 after more than sixty years' suppression. Yevgeny Zamyatin (1884-1937) was a naval engineer by profession and writer by vocation, who made himself an enemy of the Tsarist government by being a Bolshevik, and an enemy of the Soviet government by insisting that human beings have absolute creative freedom. He wrote short stories, plays and essays, but his masterpiece is We, written in 1920-21 and soon thereafter translated into most of the languages of the world. It first appeared in Russia only in 1988. If you enjoyed We, you might like George Orwell's 1984, also available in Penguin Classics. 'the best single work of science fiction yet written' Ursula K. LeGuin, author of The Left Hand of Darkness 'It is in effect a study of the Machine, the genie that man has thoughtlessly let out of its bottle and cannot put back again' George Orwell, author of 1984

We

WE is a classic of dystopian science fiction by the Russian revolutionary Yevgeny Zamyatin. The novel is set 1,000 years after a revolution that brought the One State into power, a society where all live for the collective good and individual freedom does not exist. Citizens are known only by their number, and the story s main character is D-503, an engineer working on a spaceship that aims to bring the glorious principles of the Revolution to space. This world is controlled by the Guardians, who spy on citizens, who all live in apartments made of glass so that they can be perfectly observed. Trust in the system is absolute. While 1984 and other dystopias featured surveillance and telescreens, WE is the most analogous to the panoptical surveillance utopia being promoted by the tech gods of Silicon Valley, who seem to admire computers more than they do humans. In WE, citizens see themselves as part of a glorious, infallible machine. In the One State, the Guardians and Benefactor urge men to live like machines themselves, so as to avoid even the possibility of failure. One State Science cannot make a mistake, The reality that dawns on the reader is that this seeming fiction is all-too real in our times. [Zamyatin’s] intuitive grasp of the irrational side of totalitarianism — human sacrifice, cruelty as an end in itself — makes [We] superior to Huxley’s [Brave New World]. —George Orwell Along with Jack London s The Iron Heel, WE is generally considered to be the grandfather of the satirical futuristic dystopia genre.  WE directly inspired George Orwell’s 1984, Aldous Huxley s Brave New World and Ayn Rand s Anthem, and was a precursor to the work of Philip K. Dick and Stanislaw Lem. WE was first published in 1921. Translated by Gregory Zilboorg.
