The book that influenced writers from Carl Sagan to Stephen Hawking,
Flatland is set in a two-dimensional world where life exists only in
lines and shapes - until one of its inhabitants, 'A. Square', has his
perspective transformed forever. This brilliantly eccentric classic is
an invitation to see beyond our own reality.
'At once a playful brainteaser about geometry, a pointed satire of
Victorian manners - and a strangely compelling argument about the
greatest mysteries of the Universe' Wall Street Journal
'Flatland could lead to very profound thought about our Universe and
ourselves' Isaac Asimov
