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.

評分 評分文/鲁冬旭 许多读者恐怕对《平面国》并不熟悉,至少我在开始翻译前对其知之甚少:除了《生活大爆炸》里谢尔顿的推崇,我压根没在别处听说过这部作品。 1884 年出版,作者埃德温·A. 艾勃特是牧师、神学家、古典文学学者、公立学校校长——成书年代和作者的身份都让我下意识想拒...
