Review # 1 was written on 2016-01-26 00:00:00 Tim Cooper I was looking for some literary analysis & criticism of Gulliver's Travels, this book didn't really meet those expectations but as some supplementary material it was helpful. There was a short biographical sketch of Swift, then Bloom's very short blurbs about each of the chapters of Gulliver's Travels. The most interesting part of the book were the collection of essays by various authors and literary critics from Swift's time through contemporary times.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-10-22 00:00:00 Mohammed Adam Read two versions, the 1996 one and the 1986 one. Skimmed them both. Skimmed the 1986 one more. I love Harold Bloom though, I love his guides.
