Flatland

Meer over het boek

Set in a two-dimensional world inhabited by geometric shapes, the narrative follows a square's journey of self-discovery and enlightenment. As he navigates the rigid social hierarchy of Flatland, he encounters various shapes and grapples with the limitations of his reality. The story explores themes of dimensions, perception, and societal norms, ultimately challenging the reader to consider the nature of existence and the possibility of higher dimensions. Abbott's work serves as both a satire of Victorian society and a thought-provoking philosophical treatise.
