不知道是外国人想象力太丰富,还是我们想象力太贫乏,怎么人家就能写得出这种小说来,我们就一辈子循规蹈矩地思考呢?
评分有个低等的等腰三角形,脑袋还不到四度,不仅偶尔涂成某个商人的颜色,然后抢劫他的商店,而且把自己涂成,或者让人把他涂成(因为这个故事说法不一)十二边形的12种颜色。他来到一个集市上,佯装他人的声音勾引了一位少女。这位少女是位出身于高贵的多边形家庭的孤儿,在这之...
评分通过假想构建一个世界,并且通过细节勾画使之可信,这点可追美《1984》。这部小说也勾起我对许多年前的哲学思考的一些回忆,当时还和同学讨论另一种存在形式的可能性,也许是能量式、波式或概念式或我们完全不知道的一种存在。作者通过空间形式的转变,创造出这样一种存在,十...

If my poor Flatland friend retained the vigour of mind which he enjoyed when he began to compose these Memoirs, I should not now need to represent him in this preface, in which he desires, firstly, to return his thanks to his readers and critics in Spaceland, whose appreciation has, with unexpected celerity, required a second edition of his work; secondly, to apologize forcertain errors and misprints (for which, however, he is not entirely responsible); and, thirdly, to explain one or two misconceptions. But he is not the Square he once was. Years of imprisonment, and the still heavier burden of general incredulity and mockery, have combined with the natural decay of old age to erase from his mind many of the thoughts and notions, and much also of the terminology, which he acquired during his short stay in Spaceland. He has, therefore, requested me to reply in his behalf to two special objections, one of an intellectual, the other of a moral nature.
