Yevgeny Zamyatin was a Russian novelist, playwright, and satirist. He was widely recognized as one of the most brilliant and cultured minds of the post-revolutionary period. Zamyatin is also considered as the creator and pioneer of dystopia genre — the anti-Utopian novel. He was an exponent of the cosmopolitan-humanist traditions of the European intelligentsia. Many regard him shaping the most creative period of the then Soviet literature.
Educated as a naval engineer, Zamyatin combined his scientific career with writing. His early works included Uyezdnoye (A Provincial Tale), a satire of provincial life, and Na kulichkakh (At the World’s End) — an attack on military life that was condemned by tsarist censors. His The Islanders satirized what he saw as the meanness and emotional repression of English life. For many years, his criticism of literary politics kept him out of official favour.
