I have no idea how I came to own this 19th century novel 10 years ago, but it is a most unusual quasi-scientific fictional tale narrated by a man who lives in a two-dimensional world and is taken to the three-dimensional world for a short visit and a series of lessons on how that other world exists. A very strange story, indeed.
