The book is set in a future society governed by strict rules and surveillance, where individualism is suppressed in favor of collective conformity. Zamyatin's work critiques totalitarianism and explores themes of freedom, identity, and the conflict between the individual and the state. Zamyatin's influence extends beyond literature, impacting later dystopian writers such as George Orwell and Aldous Huxley. His portrayal of a controlled society has resonated with readers and continues to be relevant in discussions about government overreach and personal liberties.
