Résumé du livre

"We is set in a glass city of the future, where secret police and spies inform on and supervise the public with ease. Here life is organized to promote maximum productive efficiency and monolithic conformity; people march in step with each other and wear identical clothing. There is no way of referring to people except their given numbers. Males have odd numbers prefixed by consonants; females have even numbers prefixed by vowels. The story follows a man called D-503, who dangerously begins to veer from the 'norms' of society after meeting I-330, a woman who defies the rules. D-503 soon finds himself caught up in a secret plan to destroy OneState and liberate the city. " - We, Yevgeny Zamyatin
