His subsequent encounters; with the crude giants of Brobdingnag, the philosophical Houyhnhnms and brutish Yahoos; give Gulliver new, bitter insights into human behaviour. Swift's corrosive satire embraces all aspects of humanity. It is witty when dealing with foibles and frailty, bitter when facing pride and stupidity, but compassionate and unsentimental when focused upon suffering.* This is a FINE copy with absolutely minimal shelf wear.*
