Official synopsis Publisher

A tale of 4 voyages, during each of which, Lemuel Gulliver finds himself shipwrecked or taken prisoner. During his adventures, he comes across several strange races. The petty, diminutive Lilliputians, the crude giants of Brobdingnag, the abstracted scientists of Laputa, the philosophical Houyhnhnms, and the brutish Yahoos. All of who give him new, bitter insights into human behavior. Swift’s fantastic and subversive book remains supremely relevant in our own age of distortion, hypocrisy, and irony.
