Liked It1 of 1 members found this review helpful“I enjoyed reading this book and was surprised by some of its contents. Gulliver's Travels is a book that I had heard about and read excerpts from -- part of the story of Gulliver's visit to Lilliput was in a High School English text -- but not a book that I had ever read. |
Didn’t Like It“I read this book after reading A tree Grows in Brookly becuase I though it's be just as good. WRONG. It is erratic, all over the place, and generally wierd. It was almost painful to read. Ouch.” see full review » see other reviews » |
“This book is about a man who gets stranded and finds himself caught in many different situations.”

However, this has been the 3rd or 4th time I've read parts of this and it has becoming a little boring although I still do appreciate what Swift did.
My favorite section is the last one, The Houyhnhnms. That still intrigues and delights me.”
