«Los viajes de Gulliver» is the youth adaptation of Jonathan Swift's novel by Martin Jenkins, published by Editorial Vicens Vives in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
The book narrates the adventures of Doctor Lemuel Gulliver, who travels to remote countries and discovers very different societies: tiny beings who wage absurd wars, a land of giants that makes him question his own civilization, a floating island ruled by tyrants, and a country where horses are rational and humans seem like beasts. Martin Jenkins's adaptation preserves the irony and humor of the original work with an agile pace, accompanied by Chris Riddell's illustrations. The volume includes didactic activities.
It belongs to the Cucaña collection (number 34). Includes activities to work on reading comprehension.
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.
