Beschreibung

Illustrated Edition: Enriched with 20 intricate illustrations exploring the fantastical dimensions!
	 Inclusive Content: Comes with a detailed summary, characters list, and an inspiring author biography!
	 Unleash Imagination: Dive into a universe that promises a blend of mathematical intrigue and sociopolitical allegory!

Embark on a journey beyond the confines of our familiar dimensions with Edwin A. Abbott’s immortal masterpiece, "Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions."
Crafted not merely as a novel, but as a bridge between disparate worlds of understanding, this unique illustrated edition invites you to traverse the mesmerizing realms that blend mathematics, philosophy, and social satire into a singular, unparalleled narrative.
"Flatland" unveils the story of A. Square, a resident of a two-dimensional world where life, in all its complexity, unfolds on a singular plane. But the tranquility of Flatland is jolted as A. Square is confronted by the Sphere, a visitor from a three-dimensional world called Spaceland, whose revelations shatter the simplistic foundations of A. Square’s understanding and societal norms.
Delve into a narrative that seamlessly navigates through the fascinating geometrical landscapes, and simultaneously, reflects the stark, divisive social hierarchies of Victorian England. The additional illustrations in this edition meticulously curate and amplify the visual experience, providing readers with a graphical journey through the surreal worlds contained within the text.
Explore, within these pages, a tale that transcends its geometric confines, breaking through into metaphysical contemplations and existential dialogues. A. Square's ventures from the absolute of his known reality to the perplexities of higher dimensions unravel not merely as a personal evolution but as an allegory, posing perennial questions about perception, knowledge, and the acceptance of the beyond.
This edition provides an enriched reading experience by accompanying your journey with a detailed summary, a comprehensive characters list, and an evocative biography of Edwin A. Abbott, ensuring a multi-faceted exploration of the narrative, its creator, and the underlying themes encapsulated within.
Unshackle your imagination, and allow it to wander into the flat plains and beyond, contemplating the infinities that perhaps linger, unseen, unexplored, and waiting to be discovered in dimensions beyond our own. Witness "Flatland" not merely as a narrative but as an eternal dialogue between reality and possibility.

Grab your copy of "Flatland," and let the wonders of unseen dimensions unfold before you!

    In Due Time begins outside a Philadelphia courthouse when Ryan Coleman is kidnapped and delivered to a luxury yacht off the coast of Florida, where his billionaire mentor, Randy Hollis, has decided that Ryan will become his one and only heir to his legacy and fortune. Ryan thinks he has been framed him for the death of Lisa O, the world’s number one escort, despite his plan to save Hollis and himself from being disbarred and going to prison. This turn of events sends Coleman into a frenzy as he navigates his sudden rise to power while discovering that his best friend and wife are shacking up together. When tragedy strikes, Coleman is suddenly left to his own devices and must choose his path forward. Will he take the advice of his mother and a newly rekindled love story, or turn to the dark side as he witnessed with several masters of the universe in his orbit? While Ryan Coleman was once thought by everyone to be naïve and in over his head, easy to manipulate and even frame, in Book Two he becomes the rainmaker, at least until the end, when he ends up right back where he started.

    This is the true story of a woman who discovered a fascinating new way of living, refreshingly different to the rat race she had become trapped in. This new world was full of machoism, sexism and a complete lack of political correctness. Brizo entered a world where she was constantly surprised that being her filthy and inappropriate self was instantly accepted and even welcomed. She had glided into the world of sailing. The rough and rugged unkempt sailor types kept her dripping wet both in and out of the water. While Brizo was frustrated with the sexism that exists on deck, she was pleasantly surprised to discover that women are respected for taking charge down below. She found herself in a world where women were given credit for having many lovers and for being assertive in the bedroom. I suppose when the ratio of men is so much higher than that of women, a sailor is grateful he's secured a mermaid on his hook.
