Gulliver's Travels describes the four voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon. In Lilliput he discovers a world in miniature; towering over the people and their city, he is able to view their society from the viewpoint of a god. However, in Brobdingnag, a land of giants, tiny Gulliver himself comes under observation, exhibited as a curiosity at markets and fairs. In Laputa, a flying island, he encounters a society of speculators and projectors who have lost all grip on everyday reality; while they plan and calculate, their country lies in ruins. Gulliver's final voyage takes him to the land of the Houyhnhnms, gentle horses whom he quickly comes to admire - in contrast to the Yahoos, filthy bestial creatures who bear a disturbing resemblance to humans.

Jonathan Swift was born on 30 November 1667 in Dublin in Ireland. He was the second child and only son of Jonathan Swift and
his wife Abigail Erick (or Herrick) of Frisby on the Wreake. His father was a
native of Goodrich, Herefordshire, but he accompanied his brothers to Ireland
to seek their fortunes in law after their Royalist father's estate was brought
to ruin during the English Civil War. Swift is remembered for works such as A
Tale of a Tub, An Argument Against Abolishing Christianity, Gulliver's Travels,
and A Modest Proposal.
