Gulliver's Travels ~ Jonathan Swift

Small paperback novel
Good condition

A satirical novel that follows the adventures of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon who encounters extraordinary societies on his voyages. The book is divided into four parts, each detailing Gulliver's experiences in different lands:

Lilliput: Gulliver finds himself in a land of tiny people, where he must navigate their petty politics and conflicts.

Brobdingnag: Gulliver is captured by giants and witnesses the flaws and vices of human society from a new perspective.

Laputa and the Academy of Lagado: Gulliver visits a floating island inhabited by impractical scientists and philosophers, satirizing the impracticality of certain intellectual pursuits.

The Country of the Houyhnhnms: Gulliver encounters a society of intelligent horses (Houyhnhnms) and brutish human-like creatures (Yahoos), exploring themes of reason and humanity.

Swift uses Gulliver's travels to critique human nature, society, and the follies of the Enlightenment. The novel is both a fantastical adventure and a sharp social commentary.
