Om denne e-boken
In Jonathan Swift's most celebrated book, surgeon Lemuel Gulliver takes to the open seas and winds up shipwrecked on the island kingdom of Lilliput. Gulliver is a giant to the tiny Lilliputians. They take him prisoner, but he eventually gains their trust and escapes. Gulliver's adventure continues when he journeys to the lands of the giant Brobdingnags, meets the aloof academics of the floating empire Laputa, confronts the aristocratic horses the Houyhnhnms, and grapples with the idiotic Yahoos. Swift's tale is an insightful political fantasy puncturing pretension, and it has charmed and befuddled generations of readers both young and old.

Om forfatteren
Jonathan Swift, born in 1667, was an Irish writer and political pamphleteer best known for his wildly inventive socio-political satire about the English everyman Gulliver and his bizarre travels engaging with various citizens both human and non-human. Although Swift was an ordained Anglican priest, his talents as a writer were formidable. Religion became his target for the satire A Tale of the Tub, and he deftly attacked good taste with his scathing A Modest Proposal.
