Little treasures, the FLAME TREE COLLECTABLE CLASSICS are chosen to
create a delightful and timeless home library. Each stunning, gift
edition features deluxe cover treatments, ribbon markers, luxury
endpapers and gilded edges. The unabridged text is accompanied by a
Glossary of Victorian and Literary terms produced for the modern
reader. Gorgeous gift edition. Jonathan Swift's classic is one the
greatest novels written in the English language. It's a monumental
satire of political and social mores, particularly of the
Seventeenth Century obsession with travel and exploration. Gulliver
journeys through a series of islands meeting a fantastical array of
people – the tiny Liliputions, the gigantic Brobdingnags,
philosophers on a floating island, unhappy immortals, elevated
speaking horses, and brutish humans called Yahoos. His observations
oblige the reader to think of themselves in such company, to
measure their own behaviour, and think beyond their own
preconceived notions. Such preoccupations resonate still today.
