Gulliver's Travels

Gulliver’s Travels follows Lemuel Gulliver, a ship’s surgeon, on his four extraordinary voyages. In Lilliput, he towers over the tiny inhabitants, gaining a godlike perspective on their society. In Brobdingnag, the tables turn as he becomes a curiosity among giants. On the floating island of Laputa, he encounters a society obsessed with abstract ideas, neglecting the real world.
