Description

Get ready for a dizzying dive into the "McCay Dimension" with this true and false tribute to the undisputed master of the imagination. McCay is an invented biography chronicling authentic - though only partially true - stories of the life of the future creator of Little Nemo, Winsor McCay - in which McCay's life is enriched by an imaginary encounter with British mathematician and science fiction writer Charles Hinton. Hinton, as a mathematician and philosopher, postulates the existence of a fourth spatial dimension - and seeks an artist capable of representing it, one with an innate sense of perspective and a limitless imagination. In Winsor McCay, Hinton finds such a man, and when their imaginations combine, an entirely new world opens up to them both...

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
