Title: Gulliver's Travels
Author: Jonathan Swift
Publisher: Audible
Year: 1726/2010
~318 pages
Audiobook.
Read by David Hyde Pierce. A good satire of both the travel writing genre and Swift's political milieu. Each of the adventures has its very funny aspects. It's clear why the journey to Lilliput is the most popular: It's a tight story with well-chosen "factual" details to support its claim to be non-fiction, plus a great deal of amusing scatology.
