Fiction books in a communist setting? (lemmygrad.ml)

Asking for recommendations of fiction books with a communist setting. Ideally with a “show don’t tell” narrative structure. That is, communism exists and works fine but the author does not say “this is communism”. Just existing in the background like any other normal thing.

While not communism per se, Island by Aldous Huxley is a nice read. It's set on a fictional island that is communist-like. It's pretty utopian though.
