Gulliver's Travels

Gulliver’s Travels recounts the story of Lemuel Gulliver, a practical-minded Englishman trained as a surgeon who takes to the seas when his business fails. In a deadpan first-person narrative that rarely shows any signs of self-reflection or deep emotional response, Gulliver narrates the adventures that befall him on these travels.Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World. In Four Parts.

It is Swift's best known full-length work, and a classic of English literature.
