- I read it in 10th grade and it was paired with F 451 if i remember correcty

- the people's "names" were numbers

- it was suppose to be a utopia

- males and females wern't allowed to get together

- the man worked in a feild if i'm correct

- the male and female ran away from the village and stayed in a cabin

hope that helps someone help me

and sorry fi this is wrong place but i thought about this book after reading the F 451 thread and i just can't think of the name of it

Hmm. I don't think it is 1984. It reminds of me of a book I read when I was younger, but I cannot remember the name.

I'd say at first it'd be 1984, but IIRC they had names, not numbers as names.

Yea, it's Anthem.

I only paid attention to the number thing which is why I said "We".

Sounds interesting but I passionately hate Ayn Rand.

One of the best dystopian novels, though.
