Book Reviews of We

Book Review: Brilliant Russian SF.
Summary: 5 Stars

Although the version I read was a Portuguese translation (can't comment this one), the story is excellent. It was written long before 1984 by G.Orwell, who was inspired by it (as well A. Huxley), and tells us the life in this strange utopian world were there are no individuals, only an anonymous mass of people. There is also rebellion and love in this SF environment (this book is part of the Russian SF literature of the beginning of the October Revolution, like the work of M. Bulgakov et al). For those who read 1984 you'll notice some similarities, but the 'egg' in this case is We, not 1984.
