Descriere magazin:
Shipwrecked castaway Lemuel Gulliver\'s encounters with strange creatures in strange lands 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. Illustrations. A wickedly clever satire uses comic inversions to offer telling insights into the nature of man and society. Nominated as one of America\'s best-loved novels by PBS\'s The Great American Read Gulliver\'s Travels describes the four voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship\'s surgeon. In Lilliput he discovers a world in miniature; towering over the people and their city, he is able to view their society from the viewpoint of a god. However, in Brobdingnag, a land of giants, tiny Gulliver himself comes under observation, exhibited as a curiosity at markets and fairs. In Laputa, a flying island, he encounters a society of speculators and projectors who have lost all grip on everyday reality; while they plan and calculate, their country lies in ruins. Gulliver\'s final voyage takes him to the land of the Houyhnhnms, gentle horses whom he quickly comes to admire - in contrast to the Yahoos, filthy bestial creatures who bear a disturbing resemblance to humans. This text, based on the first edition of 1726, reproduces all the original illustrations and includes an introduction by Robert Demaria, Jr, which discusses the ways Gulliver\'s Travels has been interpreted since its first publication. Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) was born in Dublin. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
