Description
The groundbreaking dystopian novel that inspired 1984 and Brave New World. "The best single work of science fiction yet written." -Ursula K. Le Guin When society has programmed you to sleep . . . How do you wake yourself up? The One State is a world where people are merely numbers, and free will itself is a disease. Most are happy in their role as cogs in a huge machine, controlled by the ever-watchful Benefactor. However, on the eve of the launch of the Integral-the spacecraft that will impose the One State's way of life everywhere-starship architect D-503 meets I-330, a female number as irreverent as she is beautiful. The Benefactor has quantified human experience, circumscribed edit, reduced it to nothing but a series of mathematical equations-that is, until one man tries to factor in the ultimate unknown: love. Before Huxley. Before Orwell. There was Zamyatin. Discover it for yourself today. Bonus: includes Zamyatin's famous "Death Sentence Appeal" letter to Stalin, and "Love Is the Function of Death" a bold new essay by noted science fiction author, reviewer, and scholar Paul Di Filippo. "How could I have missed one of the most important dystopias of the 20th century? . . . I was amazed by it." -Margaret Atwood "One of the literary curiosities of this book-burning age." -George Orwell
