We by Yevgeny ZamyatinMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
My first dive into the dystopian world of literature, and We by Yevgeny Zamyatin really made an impression. It’s set in a future where individuality is erased, people live under strict control, and life is all about order. The story follows D-503, an engineer whose life changes after meeting someone who challenges everything he knows.
What really stayed with me were the big ideas — individuality vs. control, freedom vs. conformity. Zamyatin’s style feels like reading someone’s private journal, and it definitely made me curious to explore more dystopian stories.
