Synopsis

An odd, amusing and still provocative fantasy. The narrator is a Square who lives in a world of two dimensions, and whose vision of a third gets him into grave trouble with the authorities.

The Forward - Asimov

The best introduction one can find into the manner of perceiving dimensions.
