The title of the book says - “Gulliver's Travels: and Alexander Pope's Verses on Gulliver's Travels (Everyman's Library Classics)“. There is no Alexander Pope’s verse on Gulliver’s Travels & I am referring to this Everyman Library edition. I am disappointed.
3.0 out of 5 starsQuite boring with the odd wonderful insidght.

I’ll give it 3 because to still be in print after 300 is quite something. It also has some interesting concepts and takes on what an early 18th century political advisor thought of the human race. However, it’s at times excruciatingly boring and hard to read. Anyone that says they loved every page is, in my opinion, saying this because they think they should or lying. It’s really hard work for a lot of the time.
Great packaging, fast delivery & a great price!! Really happy!! Bought as part of our wedding decoration!! The book arrived well within the estimated delivery time and is great, me & my boyfriend loved it!! Thanks again!!

I wanted to buy the original book by Jonathan Swift and no adaptation. In the product description page it is said the author is Jonathan Swift. Nothing about adaptation.
