Yevgeny Zamyatin 
We 

This classic Russian dystopian novel inspired George Orwell, Aldous Huxley, and many other science fiction writers, and now this reprint of the original 1924 translation of We is available from Dover. Set in a future under a unified totalitarian state, in a society ruled by conformity and where humans are identified by their assigned number, spaceship engineer D-503 must face his beliefs about the One Party head-on after a chance encounter with the beautiful and dissident I-330. It’s a page-turning adventure that has a home on any science fiction fan’s bookshelf.
