Originally banned in the Soviet Union, We is a prophetic and unsettling novel that envisions a future where the state dictates every aspect of life. Citizens live under total surveillance, are stripped of personal identity, and are assigned numbers instead of names.

Written in 1921, We is a stark warning about the dangers of collectivism, state-engineered conformity, and the erosion of free will.
