Zamjatin and his "Mõ" (Us)

[Taliesin]

We don't remember how long a writer must be dead till his works could be made public, but Zamjatin died in 1937 and writ his Mõ in 1924, so, if they have been dead long enough, could Admin add it to this site. We mean, it is one of the three great dystopies (the other two are BNW and 1984) Mõ even influenced the other two.

Yay if it's out of copyright I want this too!!!

Btw Taliesin, I think it should be something like 70 or 75 years for the copyright to be over, so 1924 should be enough...methinks.

This book is very worthwhile. It has an amazing, let's say, second worldly atmosphere. Get it and read it.

I could manage to get my hands on an etext of We. It is in the pdf format and the file size is around 350kb. Won't be able to upload it here. Let me know if you want it.

With foreign language novels it's the translation copyright not the original work you have to look out for. The 1924 translation can be found here, in pdf http://mises.org/books/we_zamiatin.pdf, but it's not in the public domain.
