Synopsis

Of a restless disposition, Lemuel Gulliver escapes London for the remote regions of the world. During his many, often terrifying, adventures he encounters the tiny squabbling inhabitants of Lilliput and the simple giants of Brobdingnag, as well as the noble Houyhnhnms and brutish Yahoo. From them he learns bitter lessons of human life which make him question his most cherished beliefs.

From the Back Cover

In this narrative of the gullible ship's doctor Lemuel Gulliver and his extraordinary travels, Jonathan Swift takes readers through a series of apparently child-like fantasy worlds of tiny people and giants, floating islands and talking horses. But through this fantastic journey, he also gave to literature an enduring model of mankind's follies, vulnerabilities, vanities, and self-destructiveness. Dangerously topical in its own time and much debated ever since, Gulliver's Travels is among those works of English literature that entrap and challenge readers in every period. This edition uses the 1735 edition as the copy text, retaining the original, unmodernized text. Historical appendices provide a context for the novel's literary models, scientific influences, and complex political and religious allusions.
