Yevgeny Zamyatin's We is a pioneering dystopian novel set in the totalitarian 26th-century One State, a glass-enclosed city where emotion and individuality are suppressed under total surveillance by the Benefactor, with citizens identified by numbers. Mathematician D-503, chronicling his life in a journal, falls for the rebellious I-330, who introduces him to feelings, a world beyond the walls, and a plot to overthrow the regime, ultimately leading him to question his logical existence and embrace freedom before facing the state's mandatory imagination-removing "Great Operation". 

The translation by Natasha Randall is preferred. Reta Shayevic's translation is also satisfactory.

A Dystopian Tale of Human-Animal Communication.  An Epidemic that Bridges Species. 

In this unique dystopian narrative, a new disease transforms society by enabling communication between animals and humans. This extraordinary change redefines the way people interact with the world around them, introducing both challenges and opportunities as the boundaries between species blur. The story vividly explores the relationships that develop between humans and animals in the wake of this epidemic. Detailed descriptions of these interactions highlight how communication alters traditional dynamics, leading to both unexpected alliances and conflicts. At the heart of the tale is the protagonist's journey to find her missing granddaughter. Accompanied by a dingo, she navigates not only a transformed world but also her own interpersonal issues. Her quest is both entertaining and thought-provoking, offering insight into human resilience and the complexities of connection in this new reality.

Winner of several awards including the 2021 Arthur C. Clarke award. "In many ways Laura's book could be considered as a first contact novel, only the multiple alien species that humanity encounters have been sharing the Earth with us all along," Award director Tom Hunter said (as quoted by the Guardian). "In this way the novel speaks for the silent victims of our real-world climate crises, but while the environmental and social themes are deeply serious, our judges also praised the book's dark humour, sense of character and place, and its active opposition to easy genre tropes."

Winner of the prestigious Prometheus Award and listed an "essential" book in the category of science fiction by TOR and SyFy. 

After having frozen himself before dying of cancer, Justin Cord a brilliant and fiercely independent 21st Century industrialist awakens from a centuries--old cryogenic chamber to a future of extraordinary human social and economic achievement, where he is successfully resurrected into a healthy, younger body.  Justin soon discovers the corporate nature of this new utopia in which following a catastrophic global economic collapse society has rebuilt itself through a system called Individual Corporation.  Viewing personal incorporation as a polite form of voluntary slavery and having been born before the system existed Justin owns 100% of his own shares and he refuses anything less, making him unique and the world's only "unincorporated man".  As powerful corporate interests plot Justin's compliance, his continued refusal shakes the foundations of the global economic system and becomes a rallying cry for the disadvantaged ""Penny Stock"" people to whom he becomes a folk hero and a symbol of liberty to the lower classes, who are heavily invested and have lost literal control of their own lives.  Justin Cord will have to bring to bear all of his brilliance and business acumen if he is not to succumb to what seem insurmountable forces lined against him in a futuristic and unimaginably complex civilization that not only encompasses all of Earth but has established past the boundaries of the Solar System and even beyond the Oort Cloud.
