We by Yevgeny Zamyatin

We is a dystopian science fiction novel that almost certainly inspired 1984 and Brave New World. Written by a Russian author in the early 20th centuries, it has the distinct honor of being the first novel censored by the Soviet literary review board. We presents a society that is rigorously controlled and observed, with everything from work and food to people's sex lives dictated by the state for the greater good.
