    The Klein curve is defined by the smooth plane model \(X^3Y+ Y^3Z+Z^3X=0\). In the precisely written paper the author gives all embeddings in higher dimension with a linear action of the automorphism group. The curve has 24 flexpoints, i.e. points where the tangent intersects with multiplicity three. For even characteristic, the embeddings yield interesting configurations of the flexpoints and good linear codes. As a main result the author shows: For \(d=5,6,18,19\), the monomial embedding of degree \(d\) has fewer than \(d\) flexpoints in each hyperplane.
