"Gulliver's Travels" follows Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon whose voyages lead him to fantastical lands. After being shipwrecked, he finds himself in Lilliput, where tiny people engage in petty politics. Further travels take him to Brobdingnag, inhabited by giants, where he is viewed as a curiosity. He encounters the Laputans, who are obsessed with mathematics and music, and the Houyhnbnms, a race of intelligent horses that live in a rational society. Through these adventures, Swift satirizes human nature, politics, and society, ultimately presenting a critique of human folly and the absurdities of civilization.
