Acclaimed British actor Paul Albertson narrates this unique presentation of Jonathan Swift's classic adventure tale that follows a ship's surgeon who travels to fanciful lands, encountering new and unusual cultures. Featuring evocative illustrations and the complete text displayed onscreen, the program brings to life Swift's incisive satire on politics, academics, science and society, a work as illuminating today as it was in the 18th century.

1 star! BORING...they just showed a book on the screen that would flip to the next page as Paul read the story! I was at least expecting something like the BBC or PBS but this was just not a fun time. We let it play on for about 1/2 hour then gave up.
