    Summary:

    A square inhabiting a two-dimensional realm comes into contact with a mysterious sphere that opens his mind to the existence of higher dimensions and threatens to upend the rigid social order of his homeland. At once an earnest inquiry into the limits of human understanding and an incisive critique of Victorian social and gender hierarchies.
