"格列佛游记（英文原版,Gullivers Travels）"的介绍
　　"When bending my eyes downward as much as I could,I perceived a human not six inches high!"
　　When Lemuel Gulliver sets off from London on a sea voyage,little does he know the many incredible and unbelievable misadventures awaiting him.Shipwrecked at sea and nearly drowned,he washes ashore upon an exotic island called Lilliput-where the people are only six inches tall!Next he visits a land of incredible giants called Brobdingnagians.They are more than sixty feet tall!He travels to Laputa,a city that floats in the sky,and to Glubbdubdrib,the Island of Sorcerers.His final voyage brings him into contact with the Yahoos-a brutish race of subhumans-and an intelligent and virtuous race of horse,the Houyhnhnms.
　　First published in 1726,Gulliver's Travels remains one of the most exciting fantasy adventures ever written.

　　Spotlight Reviews
　　Reviewer:C.Gilbert "frumiousb" (Amsterdam,the Netherlands)
　　I haven't read this book since I read it as a child,and it was amazing how much of it had stuck with me,and how vividly.There were sections (particularly in Brobdingnag) where I could almost recite word-for-word what was going to happen next.
　　Happily,like Alice in Wonderland,this is a book that ages very well.There was still the element of being just a plain old good travel story with strong images (particularly in the Lilliput and Brobdingnag sections) but there was also a wicked sense of satire that continues to be relevant and funny now more than three hundred years after the book was originally written.
　　The latter two sections of the book-- Laputa and the land of the Houyhnhnms-- are perhaps a little less vivid for being more pointed in their satirical content (interestingly I have no memory of these sections from my childhood reading) but that in no way detracts from the value of the book.
　　A must-read.
　　Reviewer:Brian P.McDonnell (Holbrook,MA USA)
　　Gulliver's Travels are broken up into four parts.The first two parts are the most famous,where Gulliver visits a land in which he is a giant and another in which it is filled with giants.Although they are very good,I found them somewhat boring.This is probably due tot he fact that I had heard these stories in so many variations already,they no longer had that originality to them.The next two parts however I found to be excellent.Several authors have expounded upon these stories or have continued them in one form of another of them.It is good to finally find the source of such great insight.For example the world in the clouds is quite humorous,and Douglas Adams makes a similar use of this satire in one of his Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe series.The island of wizard's where you can call up any of the dead to have them tell their part in history can be seen in "To Your Scattered Bodies Go" by Philip Jose Farmer (a Hugo award winner.) The final part about humans being nothing but Yahoos,and inferior to Horses is brilliant.A reversal of roles with other animals to give us a new perspective of ourselves is imitated in other such classics as "The Time Machine" by H.G.Wells,"The Island of Dr.Monreau" also by H.G.Wells,"Planet of the Apes","Animal Farm" by George Orwell,plus several Star Trek and Twilight Zone episodes.
