Gulliver's Travels
3 journalers for this copy...
"If the world has often replied by expurgating the book and presenting it to children to read, it has never quite succeeded in extracting the sting from this scornful and incisive satire on man. Gulliver is a book to which the adult reader comes back with surprise and a fresh respect. Whether it is seen as the product of an embittered mind or a profound comment on the Age of the Reason and Nature, ther is all the fascination of distorting mirrors in Swift's accounts of Lilliput and Brobdingnag, and far more tha mere spleen in the saeva indignatio with which he lashes human passions and institutions."
Well,I liked this book very much. I believe that one should read it before watching the movie ;)

Another surprise from Sweepstakes.
I know very little about Gulliver's travels, something from the movie or from the cartoon.
Now it's time to read all Gulliver's adventures.
