"Les Voyages de Gulliver" by Jonathan Swift follows Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon whose adventures take him to fantastical lands. After shipwrecks, he encounters the tiny Lilliputians, where he becomes a giant in their eyes, and the Brobdingnagians, towering over him. Gulliver also visits the surreal flying island of Laputa and the wise horses known as Houyhnhnms. Through his experiences, Swift satirizes human nature and society, revealing the absurdities of pride, politics, and morality. The story serves as a sharp critique of contemporary issues, wrapped in a narrative filled with imaginative encounters and profound reflections on humanity.
