Gulliver's Travels: The Real Thing

Date of Review:  Jul 24, 2005
The Bottom Line: This is a very useful edition of the classic.
Review: Jonathan Swift, in the English-speaking world, at least, is synonymous with barbed, bitter satire. Perhaps it is partly the circumstances of history -- Swift's time is no longer a living reality -- and partly the result of a dumbed-down,...

I SHOULD Have Liked This!

Date of Review:  Oct 2, 2000
Review: Let me start off on the right foot by admitting that this book, in all fairness, had a lot going against it at the time that I read it.

1. Although I'm an avid reader, I hate being told to read something. So when my English teacher slapped...

Fantasy From the Past

Date of Review:  Jan 28, 2001
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this story to anyone looking for an intelligent, whimsical, and entertaining story. I think it has an undeniable appeal, that's lasted for almost 300 years.
Review: This story is basically a fictitious travelogue that chronicles the adventures of one Captain Lemuel Gulliver. The story was first published in 1726 as an autobiographical account, although most realized it was actually written by Swift. It is...

A Swift Read!

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2000
Review: If you haven't had the pleasure of reading Gulliver's Travels, you are in for a treat. The story tells of Gulliver, a sailor who is shipwrecked on an island in which things are drastically different. He meets a race of little people named...

Gulliver's Travels Inside Humanity

Date of Review:  Nov 22, 2002
The Bottom Line: The BEST Satire ever written - and I mean that!
Review: Gulliver's Travels is a scathing satire written about 18th century England by the top satirist of his age.

Jonathan Swift is Gulliver - and is the one who travels the world and runs into people who symbolize specifically the British people...
