Gulliver's Travels
Hello. My name is Toshiki Nakagomi. I would like to post about Gulliver's Travels. I had a misunderstanding about it until I read it in class. I thought that this story was about a giant's travels, but Gulliver actually is a normal person. He gets to many strange countries, for example, Lilliput where too small people live, Brobdingnag where too big people live, Laputa which is a city floating in the sky, and the country of Houyhnhnms where intelligent horses and ugly creature named Yahoos live. I've never read Laputa, but the other travels were exciting. This story is not only story of adventure, but is also satiric novel. Therefore, kids and adults can enjoy reading this book. I think such a book is valuable.
