Gulliver's Travels
Illustrated by Milo Winter
"Gulliver's Travels" by Jonathan Swift is a satirical novel published in 1726. Ship's surgeon Lemuel Gulliver embarks on extraordinary voyages to remote lands inhabited by bizarre civilizations—from tiny Lilliputians embroiled in petty disputes to giant Brobdingnagians who mock European customs, from impractical floating intellectuals to rational horses living among savage human-like creatures. Through these strange encounters, Swift crafts a biting satire of human nature, society, and politics that transformed a seemingly whimsical adventure into one of literature's most enduring critiques of civilization itself.
