Gulliver’s Travels – by Jonathan Swift

Gulliver’s Travels is a brilliant blend of fantasy, adventure, and satire. It follows the strange and fascinating voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship’s doctor who travels to bizarre lands—Lilliput, where people are tiny; Brobdingnag, where everything is enormous; and other mysterious worlds where human nature is turned upside down. Through his eyes, Swift mocks politics, pride, war, and human foolishness.

Adapted for Level 4 learners (~1400 headwords), this version makes Swift’s imaginative and thought-provoking classic accessible to upper-intermediate English readers, while preserving its humor and social criticism.
