Ray’s Reviews > Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions > Status Update

I didn't read any critical discussion of the book. I wanted to explore the ideas myself. Abbott seems to be using a land of 2 dimensions to show the absurdity of some of the English culture of his time; particularly critiquing the culture of the nobility vs working man; the plight of women in his society, especially the fact that women are considered less than men and not worthy of being educated.
