16 Tasks of the Festive Season - Square #7: International Human Rights Day

We - Yevgeny Zamyatin, Clarence Brown

Book themes for International Human Rights Day: Read a book originally written in another language (i.e., not in English and not in your mother tongue), –OR– a book written by anyone not anglo-saxon, –OR– any story revolving around the rights of others either being defended or abused. 

–OR– Read a book set in New York City, or The Netherlands (home of the UN and UN World Court respectively).

 

"We" was originally written in Russian, and it feels like this book is doubly fitting with the theme of this book square as it meets the criteria for both "written in another language" and "a story revolving around the rights of others either being defended or abused".
