Gulliver’s Travel – Hardcover

Imprint / The kid Books

Author / Jonathan Swift

Gulliver’s Travels in Lilliput is a classic work of English literature that has enthralled readers for centuries. Originally published in 1726, this adventure novel tells the story of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship’s surgeon who embarks on four voyages and encounters strange lands inhabited by bizarrely-sized people and other fantastical creatures. His first journey finds him washed ashore on the tiny island of Liliput, home to people who are only six inches tall. Gulliver towers over the Lilliputians, yet finds himself at their mercy when they bind him down. His interactions with the Liliputian court and people provide amusing social and political satire. Written in an imaginative yet matter-of-fact style, Swift’s tale blends humour and fantasy with deeper reflections on human nature and the follies of government. This edition features the original illustrations and text, transporting readers to a whimsical yet thought-provoking world.

About the Author

Jonathan Swift (1667–1745) was an Anglo-Irish satirist, essayist, poet, and cleric best known for his work Gulliver’s Travels (1726), a satirical exploration of human nature and society. Born in Dublin, Ireland, Swift was educated at Trinity College. He became an ordained Anglican priest and later served as the Dean of St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Dublin.

Swift was a master of satire, using wit and irony to criticize politics, religion, and human folly. His other notable works include A Modest Proposal (1729), a darkly humorous essay suggesting the eating of children to solve poverty, and The Tale of a Tub (1704), which satirizes religious conflicts. Swift’s sharp criticism and clever storytelling established him as one of the greatest satirists in the English language. He remained active in politics and literature until his death in 1745.
