We by Yevgeny Zamyatin Summary
Overview of We
Before Orwell's "1984," Zamyatin's "We" birthed modern dystopian fiction - banned by Soviet censors until 1988. This chilling vision of surveillance and dehumanization so threatened authorities that Zamyatin's name was erased from literary history. What terrifying truths did he foresee?

A World Without Privacy: The Perfect Mathematical Society
Imagine living in a world where privacy isn't just discouraged-it's criminalized. In the United State, citizens are no longer individuals but "Numbers," each assigned an alphanumeric designation. They live in transparent glass apartments where every action is visible to all, governed by the Tables of Hourly Commandments that dictate when to eat, work, walk, and even have sex. This is the chilling reality of Zamyatin's "We," where mathematical precision has replaced human spontaneity, and happiness is achieved through the complete abolition of freedom. "We have established that happiness and freedom are incompatible," explains D-503, the novel's protagonist and narrator. As the brilliant engineer designing the Integral-a spaceship meant to export the State's perfect rationality to other planets-D-503 initially believes with religious fervor in his society's righteousness. The collective "We" has replaced the primitive "I," and even language has been purged of possessive pronouns. Nothing belongs to anyone because everyone belongs to the State. What makes this vision so disturbing isn't just the oppression but D-503's genuine enthusiasm for it. He doesn't see himself as controlled but liberated from the burden of choice. "The Tables have transformed us from wild beasts into mathematical precision," he rhapsodizes. "Every morning, millions wake at the same hour, millions begin work at the same second-one united body with millions of hands!"
