Gulliver's Travel published in England in the eighteenth century is one of the most popular fiction novel throughout the world. This satirical narrative is about Lemuel Gulliver the ill-fated explorer who is ship wrecked first on the isle of Lilliput, inhabited by a race of tiny people and then on Brobdingnag where giants rule the shores. Above all, he voyages to an island floating above the clouds, visits a race of immortals, and finds himself stranded in a land ruled by horses, warring armies and power-hungry kings. However, each journey makes Gulliver more eager to find a way back home, but, once he discovers the truth about his own land and himself, returning home becomes the last thing he desires. Jonathan Swift was an author, journalist, and political activist best known for his satirical novel Gulliver's Travels and for his famous essay on the Irish famine, "A Modest Proposal". His book was a great success throughout the British Empire, and it contributed to Swift's instant fame and legitimacy as a writer and social commentator.
