«Los viajes de Gulliver» is the satirical adventure novel by Jonathan Swift, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (352 pages, in Spanish).
Lemuel Gulliver, a surgeon by profession, recounts his travels to four imaginary worlds: the tiny country of Lilliput, the kingdom of giants Brobdingnag, the flying island of Laputa, and the territory where the houyhnhnms, rational horses, coexist with the savage yahoos. The narrative combines adventure with a scathing satire of politics and the human condition.
This edition is volume 8027 of the collection «El Libro de Bolsillo - Bibliotecas Temáticas - Biblioteca Juvenil».
The work is aimed at young people aged 11 to 15, and its social satire also appeals to adult readers.
Jonathan Swift was an Anglo-Irish writer, essayist, satirist, and Anglican cleric. He was the author of the satirical prose novel Gulliver's Travels (1726) and the creator of the fictional island of Lilliput. He is regarded by many as the greatest satirist of the Georgian era and one of the foremost prose authors in the history of English and world literature.
