First published in 1884, there have been more than 24 English editions of Flatland published. Abbott's text has been described as "prophetic in its scientific revelations of multi-dimensionality." Andrew Hoyem is the printer of this edition which unfolds to gigantic proportions. Images were dye-cut fom one side of the sleeve page as a reinterpretation of Abbott's drawings from his 1st edition. Background colors to the images and lines were applied by hand. Ray Bradbury has provided an introduction to the text. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
