Gulliver

Gulliver's Travels (1975) by Jonathan Swift

Originally published in 1726, the version I read was "revised & slightly abridged for readers of our time."

It was intended as polical satire, but I did not make any connection with that aspect of it.

Weird and inventive.

Worth reading once for its historical significance as the oldest fantasy novel on Moorcock's 100 list.

I would not include it on my own 100 list.
