Overview
A largely political and social satire, the book does this by having an average person go on extraordinary adventures to lands that portray the satirical undercurrents Swift is attempting to show. First, the main character, Gulliver, ends up in Lilliput where a race of people no taller than six inches live, he is allowed to stay as long as he doesn't hurt anyone. After leaving there, Gulliver is stranded once again in a city where this time he is the small person and all the inhabitants are giant sized. The third adventure pits Gulliver in a realm of floating cities where he attempts to get home from and lastly from a realm where the rulers of the kingdom are fantastical talking horses. The difficulties that Gulliver must overcome are reminiscent of the England of Swifts day and are a valuable lesson to us today.
