Gulliver's Travels

Jonathan Swift, 2011, Part of Penguin's Clothbound Classics series

Overview

Shipwrecked and cast adrift, Lemuel Gulliver awakens on Lilliput, an island inhabited by tiny people whose quarrels over fashion and fame appear ridiculous. His subsequent journeys bring him into contact with the giants of Brobdingnag, the philosophical Houyhnhnms, and the brutish Yahoos. These encounters offer Gulliver profound, albeit bitter, insights into human nature. Swift's sharp satire examines humanity through a distorted lens, presenting mankind as diminished, magnified, and ultimately bestial.
