WE

We We by Yevgeny Zamyatin


My review


rating: 4 of 5 stars
We was the first fiction book I've read in about 6 or 7 years. How refreshing to finally open a fiction again! I got the book by walking into a used bookstore and saying "I think it's time for fiction and have no idea where to start... maybe science fiction?" The guy behind the counter smiled and led me straight to this book. The history behind the author's struggles was enough to catch my attention so I gave it a try. I couldn't put it down! The story is provocative and captivating- quite a thinker fosho. I really enjoyed it and now I'm honestly toying with the idea of reading all of the books that it inspired: brave new world, 1984, etc. No. I haven't read either of those yet. haha

It's a pretty quick read and well worth the time.
