Description

Before Orwell, Before Huxley, there was Zamyatin.

When society has programmed you to sleep . . .

How do you wake yourself up?

The One State is a world where people are merely numbers, and free will itself is a disease. Most are happy in their role as cogs in a huge machine, controlled by the ever-watchful Benefactor.

However, on the eve of the launch of the Integral—the spcaecraft that will impose the One State's way of life everywhere—starship architect D-503 meets I-330, a female number as irreverent as she is beautiful.

The Benefactor has quantified human experience, circumscribed it, reduced it to nothing but a series of mathematical equations—that is, until one man factors back in the ultimate unknown: love.

This is We, the groundbreaking novel that inspired 1984 and Brave New World, the two towering dystopian works of the twentieth century.
