Summary/Abstract: The objective of this article is to draw attention to how Zamyatin changes utopia associated perceptions. The first anti utopian novel ever written in the world literature is We by Zamyatin. The underlying factors for writing as well as the reactions after the publication of the work are of great importance for this study, because, according to the argument of this study, the previous two stories by Zamyatin titled “The Islanders” and “A Fisher of Men” are laboratory examinations for We on anti utopian concept.
