When Gulliver finds himself washed up on the shores of the island of Lilliput inhabited by ‘little people’ and taken prisoner his life is to change forever but that is just the beginning of his story. For following his escape from Lilliput his travels take him to the huge people of Brobdingnag, the floating island of Laputa and to the land of Houynhnmland where there are horses with great virtues.
The characters are wonderfully drawn, and Gulliver has a great talent for the languages of each land and his travels also provide bitter insights into human behaviour. It is in the end an uncompromising reflection of mankind in its many guises but riveting all the same and essential reading.
Shipwrecked and tossed into unknown shores, traveller Lemuel Gulliver finds himself stranded on an unknown island, Lilliput, populated by feisty miniature people. His continued journeys lead him to meet the giants of Brobdingnag, the intelligent horse race called Houyhnhnms and the beastly Yahoos who remind him too much of humans.
