Next Episode: Episode 16.1 - One Evening In 2217

This week we discuss the second half of "We" by Yevgeny Zamyatin - its pioneering work in one of Western literature's favorite genres, and its haphazard, muddled plot.

We also really want to go back to the gym.

Next week we're reading "One Evening in 2217" by Nikolai Fyodorov from the Red Star Tales collection of Soviet science fiction.
