“GULLIVER’S TRAVELS comes third in our list of the best novels written in English.” (The Guardian)
Jonathan Swift’s comic masterpiece was a sensation when it was first published, selling out its initial run in less than a week.
The English poet John Gay wrote in a letter to Swift: “It is universally read, from the cabinet council to the nursery”.
Since then it has never been out of print.
This edition includes the classic color illustrations by Arthur Rackham.
READERS’ REVIEWS:
“Probably the best book I’ve ever read.”
“You must read this intelligent and thoroughly entertaining book. Cannot recommend enough. You will not be disappointed!”
“A joyous text, full of wit and irony.”
“How lovely to delve back into a book I enjoyed so much when I was young. A truly wonderful classic.”
“One of the smartest novels ever written. It is a funny, sharp, poignant, and startling look at human nature.”
“A classic with a thoroughly modern message. It has a great deal to tell us about the early twenty-first century world.”
“One of the greatest works I've ever had the pleasure to read. Gulliver's Travels is read by children as an adventure story and by adults as a satire of society which still is a perfect bullseye today. It is funny and just a joy to read.”
