Flatland

So I haven't yet finished Flatland, but I'm well on my way. An interesting book by any extent, and thanks to Tia for the fabulous idea. Not bad at all I must say, good book taste. Where the music taste went however... haha. Anyway. I'll tell more when it's all finished up.

Something I'd thought was slightly humorous:
What therefore "introduction" is among the higher classes in Spacelend, that the process of "feeling" is with us. "Permit me to ask you to feel and be felt by my friend Mr. So-and-so" - is still, among the more old-fashioned of our country gentlement in districts remote from towns, the customary formula for a Flatland introduction.
