The Dot and the Line: A Quirky Vintage Love Story in Lower Mathematics by Norton Juster, Animated by Chuck Jones. By Maria Popova “Moral: The vector belongs to the spoils.” In 1963, two years after he penned his timeless classic The Phantom Tollbooth, Norton Juster wrote and illustrated The Dot and the Line: A Romance in Lower Mathematics (public library) — the quirky and infinitely wonderful love story that unfolds in a one-dimensional universe called Lineland where women are dots and men are lines; a hopeful straight line falls hopelessly in love with a dot out of his league, who only has eyes for a sleazy squiggle, and sets about wooing her.

Inspired by the Victorian novella Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions, it’s an endearing and witty fable of persistence and passion, and a creative masterwork at the intersection of mathematics, philosophy, and graphic design. To woo the dot, the line decides to master the myriad shapes capable of expressing his full potential. For months he practiced in secret. MORAL: The vector belongs to the spoils. Juster’s jacket-copy bio is fittingly delightful:

Part 1: "Underground"[edit] It consists of an introduction, three main sections and a conclusion. (i) The short introduction propounds a number of riddles whose meanings will be further developed. (1) Chapters two, three and four deal with suffering and the enjoyment of suffering; (2) chapters five and six with intellectual and moral vacillation and with conscious "inertia"-inaction; (3) chapters seven through nine with theories of reason and logic; (c) the last two chapters are a summary and a transition into Part 2. War is described as people's rebellion against the assumption that everything needs to happen for a purpose, because humans do things without purpose, and this is what determines human history. Secondly, the narrator's desire for happiness is exemplified by his liver pain and toothache.

Part 2: "Apropos of the Wet Snow"[edit] The story cuts to Liza and the underground man lying silently in the dark together. Komm, ich erzähl dir eine Geschichte von Jorge Bucay bei LovelyBooks (Romane) Number 23 (2007.
