A review by isabellarobinson7
We by Yevgeny Zamyatin
Rating: ?? stars
I could write an entire dissertation on We by Yevgeny Zamyatin*, but I'm not going to do anything like that. The only thing I am going to say is that everyone in this book sounds like a droid from Star Wars:
AP-5, BD-1, D-503, I-330, O-90, R-13, TC-14.
Bet you can't tell of those were characters from this novel and which were droids. Even I can’t, and I made the list.
*No, it is not lost on me that the author has the same first name as Yevgeny Prigozhin, the Russian mercenary dude who "died" during the Russian invasion of Ukraine recently. I suppose it is just like two people being called Paul, but because it is in Russian it stands out more to my English ears.
