Description

"Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World" by Jonathan Swift is a satirical prose novel published in 1726. Ship surgeon Lemuel Gulliver embarks on extraordinary voyages to bizarre lands—encountering tiny people obsessed with trivial disputes, giants who mock European society, impractical intellectuals, and rational horses living among savage human-like creatures. Through these strange encounters, Swift crafts a biting satire of human nature and civilization's flaws. Originally written as political commentary rather than children's fare, this enduring classic continues to challenge readers with its sharp critique of society.
