About This Novel
Jonathan Swift, one of the most famous writers in the history of English literature. "Gulliver's Travels" is his masterpiece. The author uses unusual imagination to describe all kinds of strange things that the protagonist Gulliver encounters when he travels to "Lilliput", "Adult", "Huiyin" and other places. For example, in the "Lilliput Kingdom", he can freely play with all kinds of people from kings to common people in the palm of his hand; while in the "Adult Kingdom", he can be controlled by others like a child; after arriving in the "Hui Yin Kingdom", the horse has become a symbol of wisdom, and people have become inferior animals. Through such interesting stories, the author satirized various ills of British society at that time, such as the intrigues of politicians and the greed of the rich. While readers admire the author's fantastic ideas, they can also have a general understanding of the situation in Britain at that time.
