We lets readers use their own insight to figure out the meaning of this book. Readers must use critical thinking in order to understand certain symbols in the book. It is not just a simple story but has many hidden meanings. The first step to uncovering the true meaning of We is to analyze the text. When I analyze the text, I find that Zamyatin might be poking fun at government systems that completely control their people. I interpret that from when D-503 makes fun of freedom. I also get that idea from the tight schedule that everybody has to keep. Every part of the people’s lives is controlled. They sacrifice their freedom for this so-called perfect world. When you analyze the names the characters are given you can see that they symbolize certain things. An example would be I-330. D-503 is afraid of imagination and dreams. I could be like the i in math with is an imaginary number. So I-330 scares him slightly because she makes him have an imagination. I've also noticed that all the girls have vowel letters and all the boys have consonant letters. I have not yet figured out if that has some meaning. I will have to use critical thinking to figure it out.
