Meer over het boek

D-503, a mathematician in a totalitarian society, grapples with the awakening of his individual soul, challenging the oppressive regime of the 'Benefactor.' Set in the twenty-sixth century, this groundbreaking dystopian novel not only inspired Orwell's "1984" but also faced Soviet censorship. Known for its thought-provoking themes, it remains a significant work in speculative fiction. Yevgeny Ivanovich Zamyatin, a Russian author, blends science fiction with political satire, and this modern edition includes an introductory chapter by H. G. Wells.
