Gulliver's Travels has wit and satire, ingenious conception, free and easy humor, fierce jeering, dripping dripping. Its style is brilliant. No one has ever written with our difficult words more succinctly, more brightly, more naturally than Swift. Gulliver's Travels is a strange book. It is a book that measures the depth of readers. It is one of the most joyful books, but it is also one of the most poignant, sometimes even angry, books. It can be read simply, or it can be drawn into the dark of intellectual and political history. It's worth reading again and again.
