~ MixedGulliver's Travels describes the four voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship's surgeon.
The book is good. Not as a novel, but as a satire and critique of the society of its time. The main character is bland, his purpose is be a vessel for the things the author want to say. I like all the parts of the book, in particular the part III. In this moment the book is 3/5 or 4/5.
I only remember it as a social critique. Its not the best read, but the arguments struck with me somewhat.
