Gulliver's Travel.

Gulliver's Travels
is a novel written by Jonathan Swift and it's a satire on human nature and a parody of the "travellers' tales". The book is divided into four parts: in Part One the hero tells of his shipwreck off the island of Lilliput. Here he awakes to find himself a prisoner of a race of very tiny people: the Lilliputians. During his stay he learns about local customs and culture, and about the political system.
Finally he agrees to help the people in their war against another island called Blefuscu, after he returns to England.
