I know this post's title as the title of an old science fiction short story I read as a kid 35 years ago (it was already old! you be quiet) about a guy who builds his house as an unfolded tesseract net of cubes, but then there is an earthquake and the house folds itself along the fourth dimension and it becomes an actual hypercube, with the inhabitants lost and confused inside.

But I wonder now if that story's title was already a reference to something else? Or do other people know that story?

Wait, I think I remember this story! Thank you for the memory and now to see if I can find it again!

In case you haven’t come back to the post, the story is by Robert Heinlein with the (almost) same title as the post.
