Through the eyes of Lemuel Gulliver, Swift’s unforgettable satire takes readers into worlds formerly unimagined. Visit four strange and remarkable lands: Lilliput, where Gulliver seems a giant among a race of tiny people; Brobdingnag, the opposite, where the natives are giants and Gulliver puny; the ruined yet magical country of Laputa; and the home of the Houyhnhnms, gentle horses far superior to the ugly humanoid Yahoos who share their universe.

About the Author

Jonathan Swift (1667–1745) was born in Dublin. In 1692, Swift published his first work, a poem called “Ode to the Athenian Society.” Later, in the early 1700s, Swift became active in London politics. Although Swift published many works, he is best known for Gulliver’s Travels and the satirical pamphlet “A Modest Proposal.”
