Als Gullivers Reisen 1726 erschien, wurde es schnell zum Jugendbuchklassiker. Doch Jonathan Swift schrieb seine Geschichte mit einer derart scharfen Feder, dass auch Erwachsene sie durchaus mit Gewinn lesen können. "Es birgt scharfsinnige Gesellschaftsbeobachtungen und Psychogramme, entlarvt den korrupten, geld- und machtgeilen, selbstsüchtigen, bequemen Zivilisationsmenschen, den wir kennen und hassen, auch und vielleicht besonders in uns selbst" (FAZ). In seiner Geschichte erzählt Swift von Gulliver, der auf einem Schiff anheuert und bald als Arzt an Bord tätig ist.
