Flatland Summary (cont.)

Abbott proceeds to tell us about another world, Lineland. This other one- dimensional world, Lineland, is just a thought of the narrator's, who is a square in Flatland, of course. The whole middle section of the book is about Square's imaginative world, and how it is better and more fantastic than Flatland. He dreams he goes to Lineland and tries to convince the ruler that there is another dimension but the monarch doesn't understand. Basically, this whole section of the book tells us what life would be like in such a world like Lineland.
