'''Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions''' is an 1884 book by Edwin A. Abbott (1838-1926) about an imaginary land which is a Euclidean plane, and whose citizens are geometrical figures. It is entertaining on many levels, not all intended by the author, and is particularly enjoyed by students learning geometry.
