About this listen

Enter the fascinating world of Flatland, a timeless classic that blends mathematics, philosophy, and societal commentary into an imaginative tale of dimensions. In this groundbreaking novella, Edwin A. Abbott introduces listeners to a two-dimensional universe inhabited by geometric shapes. Narrated by a humble square, the story explores life in a flat plane where hierarchy is determined by shape and angles, offering sharp insights into the rigid class systems of Abbott’s time—and our own.

As the square encounters the startling reality of higher dimensions through the intervention of a mysterious sphere, the limits of perception and understanding are challenged. This profound journey leads to revelations about the nature of existence and the barriers of conformity, all told with a wit and elegance that makes Flatland as thought-provoking today as it was over a century ago. Abbott's visionary work opens doors to timeless questions about knowledge, progress, and the boundaries of human comprehension.

In this vivid audiobook edition, brought to life by the compelling narration of Austin Fuller, the brilliance of Abbott’s writing shines anew. Fuller captures the intricate layers of this geometric odyssey, immersing listeners in a world that feels both alien and intimately familiar. Whether you’re a lover of science, a student of philosophy, or simply intrigued by imaginative storytelling, Flatland offers a journey that is equal parts enlightening and entertaining.
