    Not incidentally in the 150-book Western Canon of best books!
  

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2015*

Gulliver is far from being only a children's book, as it is commonly misperceived by those who have not read the unabridged version - but a complex and subtle tale that can bring immense enjoyment to adults. Swift was a genius the rank of Shakespeare.*NOTE: IF YOU ARE A CHILD, OR A READER WITH LIMITED VOCABULARY OR PATIENCE, I RECOMMEND GETTING THE AUDIO BOOK FOR ONLY $1.99 FROM AUDIBLE DOT COM, AND DOING "IMMERSIVE READING" - READ AND LISTEN AT THE SAME TIME. IT GOES MUCH FASTER THIS WAY, WITH NO LOSS OF THE FUN.*I haven't enjoyed a book like this one for a long time, and i doubt there is another one quite like it.Very rarely one finds a book that:1 - deals with themes that are important, universal and relevant even today -  science, government, corruption, greed, integrity, upbringing, the role of feelings vs intellect.2 - embeds these themes in a highly entertaining plot that fleshes out fantasies common to all of us (e.g., What if I discovered a different civilization and, as the first representative of mankind, needed to describe my own to them?; What would it be if I suddenly became much smaller (or much larger) than others?; What if I were immortal?). Everything the reader has ever dreamt to read about will be found in this book!3 - presents this plot with a narrative mastery of such caliber that the reader enjoys every second to the brim, and is brought extreme reading satisfaction at every juncture.4 - combines great imagination with great rationality - for even the most fantastical suppositions an explanation and context have been designed, the "juiciest" bits and most interesting and impossible questions are not omitted as in other authors, but have been well thought out and articulated to the full satisfaction of the reader.This is a MUST READ!I am becoming a big Swift fan and can't wait to read his other works!

    An interesting read
  

*by G***Z on Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2009*

There will be two parts to this review.  The first, a review of this edition.  The second, a review of the book.First, this edition: I cannot easily express how impressed I am with the Sterling Unabridged Classics that I have received thus far.  The books are all hardbound, a must for any serious reader.  Additionally, the print is large enough for easy reading without being overly large.  Perhaps the nicest feature of these books is that each comes with a satin bookmark ribbon bound into the volume.  The high quality of the paper and hard covers along with the above mentioned features makes each of the volumes published by Sterling a required addition to the library of any serious reader of classic literature.  My only criticism is that the books could use more illustrations.  The illustrations that are there are amazing but they are too few.  All-in-all I would recommend any serious reader add these attractive and modestly priced editions to their own library.Second the book:  I had never read Gulliver's Travels before.  While I found all four of the stories that make up his travels to be enjoyable reads I must say that in writing these stories Swift simply recycles the same story over again with different supporting characters.  Even the order in which events occur really does not change from story to story.  In effect, each story follows the format 1. Gulliver is tired of being at home so he sets off on an adventure.  2.  Gulliver is shipwrecked and stranded in a previously undiscovered land.  3. Gulliver is at first suspect among the inhabitants.  4. Gulliver wins over the inhabitants.  5. Gulliver becomes a hero to the inhabitants.  6.  Gulliver is forced to leave because of some rule or law he inadvertently broke.  7. Gulliver reluctantly leaves.  8.  Gulliver is rescued and returned home.  Once you read the first story there is really little new to uncover in the remaining stories.  Additionally, I was not aware that the book is actually a thinly veiled commentary on politics and life in Swift's era.  If you are not aware of what was going on in the world and in politics during Swift's lifetime much of the symbolism will be lost on you.  Overall, while an enjoyable read overall I found the repetition tedious and near the end I found myself anxious for the end.  I would recommend that each story be read with a break in between where other titles are read to relieve the stale feeling one gets by reading the same story repeatedly.

    Book is great.
  

*by B***L on Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2023*

I collect this brand of classic books.  This one arrived from a used book seller.  The book was in good condition.  It did have some smudges from what looked like food on the slip cover, but I was able to wipe it off with a damp cloth.  Otherwise really good condition for what I was wanting.
