Gullivers Reisen

Almost three hundred years have passed since the interested readership first learned about the adventurous journeys of the surgeon and ship captain Lemuel Gulliver. They listened in amazement to the vanity of the thumb-sized inhabitants of Lilliput, the immoral antics of the coarse giants of Brobdingnag, and the land of the noble Houyhnhnms and their greedy and vile servants, the disturbingly similar Yahoos. Doron Rabinovici has selected the best parts of Jonathan Swift's famous novel and retold them. The volume, brilliantly illustrated by Flix, demonstrates that Swift's political satire on state arbitrariness and the belief in reason has lost none of its relevance to this day.
