This edition offers a deep dive into the disturbing, thought-provoking worlds created by Ayn Rand, Evgeny Zamyatin, and Jack London, exploring themes of individuality, totalitarianism, and societal control.
  Anthem by Ayn Rand presents a future where individualism is forbidden, and one man's journey to reclaim his identity serves as a powerful critique of collectivism.
  We by Evgeny Zamyatin, a seminal work of dystopian fiction, imagines a totalitarian society where the state controls every aspect of life, and the concept of personal freedom is almost unimaginable.
