Gulliver's Travels
Jonathan Swift
CliffsNotes on Gulliver's Travels follows several voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon, who, because of a series of mishaps, repeatedly ends up on several uncharted islands among people and animals of unusual sizes, behaviors, and philosophies. Somehow, Gulliver always manages return home before setting out again on a new voyage. Jonathan Swift wrote Gulliver's Travels as a parody of voyage literature and to attack what he considered people's most conspicuous vices.
