Gulliver's Travels

Opis

Jonathan Swift's classic satirical fable was first
published following the 'South Sea Bubble' and
other financial and commercial scandals which
sadly strike a chord in our own times. It introduced
many fictional lands and peoples which
have since entered the English language, including
the minute inhabitants of Lilliput, the giants of
Brobdingnag. and the Yahoos in the land of the
Houyhnhnms. Swift's attack on the futility of
science which is not applied to human betterment
in its widest sense, is relevant to today's
post-industrial culture.
Gulliver's Travels has always appealed to young
and old alike.
