Pinning Down Gulliver's Travels
Gulliver is a misanthropist at the end of Gulliver's Travels, but do you think that is the only possible choice for him after his adventures? How would you think of yourself, do you think, if you reduced humanity and civilization to what he tells the Houyhnhnms and the others? And ultimately, how would you classify Gulliver's Travels? Is it strictly satire? is it psychological fiction? what???

After his other adventures, he bounced back and kept his wit about him. I think this time he must have been worn out from all the travels and started to believe what he was told about his society. This book could be considered psychological fiction due to the fact that he was partly insane, which explains a lot.
His imagination definately worked overtime with this book.
