Summary

Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions is a satirical novella by the English schoolmaster Edwin Abbott Abbott, first published in 1884 by Seeley & Co. of London. Written pseudonymously by "A Square", the book used the fictional two-dimensional world of Flatland to comment on the hierarchy of Victorian culture, but the novella's more enduring contribution is its examination of dimensions.

Out of this world.

The geometric handmaid's tale. Stands the test of time, though if you must want the well described analogy of multi-dimensional things (think Loki and the tesseract) the last few chapters suffice.
