Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels
Considered one
of English literature’s first and greatest satirists, Jonathan Swift possessed
a timeless genius for pointing out the foibles of human nature that still has
the power to provoke, amuse, and, at times, even outrage our modern
sensibilities. This representative collection of Swift’s major writings
includes the complete Gulliver’s Travels as well as A Tale of a Tub, “The
Battle of the Books,” “A Modest Proposal,” “An Argument Against Abolishing
Christianity,” “The Bickerstaff Papers,” and many more of his brilliantly
satirical works. Swift’s savage
ridicule, corrosive wit, and sparkling humor are fully displayed in this
comprehensive collection
