This is supposed to be the best of the three great dystopian novels (the other two being 1984 and Farenheit 451). I love this genre so I'm really curious about this one.
EDIT: I would have liked to learn more about Helmholtz Watson. The character of John the Savage had its promise but in the end I found him too unbelievable and inconsistent. To sum up, I prefer Zamiatin's We.
