Jonathan Swift
Lemuel Gulliver, a slightly staid ship’s doctor, relates the tales of his astonishing travels. He encounters the tiny, warring Lilliputians; the giant, sceptical Brobdingnagians; the ludicrously intellectual Laputans; and the idealistic - if rather stolid - Houyhnhnms and their bestial servants, the Yahoos. An immediate best seller when it was first published in 1726, Gulliver’s Travels has remained a favourite ever since. It was an attack on the politics and society of Swift’s day, but it is also a polemical, inventive, surreal, vitriolic, and wonderfully imaginative masterpiece, whose powerful satire continues to strike home.

Perfect reader for the story

I wouldn't really call it a novel or flowing story, but well worth the listen. Nicely read and nicely produced.

The narrator does an excellent job. Very very clear. Delivers the entire book with just the right tone. A few of his accents are a little weird (Portuguese sounds German at one point), but it really makes no difference and is short-lived.
I highly recommend. I am very glad I decided to listen to this.
Much Deeper and Thought Provoking Than I Expected

Bland

The saddest part is the increasing degree by which Gulliver becomes increasingly in human, that he degenerates as a husband and a father.
It is an interesting commentary on various views of human nature.
Lastly, the only thing I didn't care for is that when the reader switches to the voice of another character, he continues in that voice, even when the perspective shifts to Gulliver.
Crazy how much is relevant today.
