Book Review of Gulliver's Travels (Dover Thrift Editions)

Gulliver's Travels (Dover Thrift Editions)
reviewed on + 9 more book reviews


The direct and unadorned narrative describes four remarkable journeys of ship's surgeon Lemuel Gulliver, among them one to the land of Lilliput, where six-inch-high inhabitants bicker over trivialties; and another to Brobdingnag, a land where giants reduce man to insignificance. Great literary read and a great classic.
