Summary

Gulliver is a travel-hungry and adventurous ship's doctor who has the odd misfortune of being ship-wrecked four times in as many voyages. Gulliver finds himself a giant among tiny humans in Lilliput; a tiny human among giants in Brobdignag; on the flying island of Laputa, with its most impractical intellectuals; and finally in the land of the Houyhnhnms, talking horses who think precious little of human ‘Yahoos’.

Critic reviews

" The Story of Gulliver has Jonathan Coe's hallmark clarity. The style is attractive, entertaining, non-exclamatory… and he writes acutely about scale and intellectual distance." ( The Observer)
