الوصف
Gulliver embarks on a voyage filled with unexpected encounters and extraordinary experiences that challenge his understanding of the world. After being shipwrecked on a mysterious island, he finds himself in the land of Lilliput, where the inhabitants are no taller than his thumb. This whimsical realm reveals the absurdities of human nature, as Gulliver navigates the intricate politics and conflicts among these tiny people.
As his journey continues, Gulliver’s explorations take him to vast and surreal lands, including the floating island of Laputa and the land of the Houyhnhnms, where intelligent horses lead a peaceful society. Each place offers a satirical reflection on society, commerce, and governance, prompting Gulliver to question the very essence of civilization.
Gulliver’s Travels becomes not only a tale of daring escapades but also a profound commentary on humanity. The richness of his adventures forces him to confront the complexities of his identity and the often irrational behaviors of those around him. As he grapples with the lessons learned, his travels unveil a broader perspective on life and the moral intricacies imbued within it.

المراجعات
I personally did not like this book. I guess I just don't like the style of the 1700s. The story, had it been written in another way, would have been amusing.
