Synopsis

Gullivers Travels"" is a representative work of the British writer Jonathan Swift, which is a wonderful book far beyond the range of ""childrens books"". The original book was widely welcomed in 1726 when it was first published in England. This book is divided into four parts. With his unusual imagination, the author had depicted a series of strange things encountered by the hero Gulliver during his voyages to ""Lilliput"", ""Brobdingnag"", ""Laputa, Balnibarbi, Luggnagg, Glubbdubdrib, and Japan"", and ""the Country of the Houyhnhnms"". And through these stories, he satirized various maladies of British politics and academia at that time, such as intrigues of politicians, endless greeds of the rich and so on. This phonetic version of ""Gullivers Travels"" hopes that children could not only get novel adventure experience but also have a general understanding of the situation of Britain at that time and feel the authors ingenious and profound satirical art.
