Book Reviews of Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions (Dover Thrift Editions)
Book Review: A mind expanding journey into the extra-dimensional.
Summary: 5 Stars
This charming story takes the reader on a trip through both of the two known dimensions (flatland and lineland) before breaking all the rules to discover a third dimension.
A middle class square describes his homeland, where everything is seen through two dimensional eyes.
Just when you are growing accustomed to a life of triangles, squares, pentagons, circles, and their friends, the narrating square brings you along on a dream into lineland.
The end result is a greater appreciation for forward thinkers, and a quaint reminder to "think outside the box".
