Edwin A. Abbott's "Flatland" is a mind-bending mathematical novella where the protagonist discovers, "I call our world Flatland, not because we call it so, but to make its nature clearer to you." In this imaginative work, a square from two-dimensional Flatland explores the limitations of his world and the struggle to comprehend higher dimensions. A social satire and mathematical allegory, "Flatland" challenges our perception of reality and societal conventions with clever wit.
