So, I didn't want to start my first blog with a spoiler, which is why in THIS spoiling blog, I'll tell about part one and part two.
In part one, Gulliver is washed up on a strange island that he never before would have encountered had the ship he'd been sailing on not sunk. Gulliver is exhausted when he finally reaches land, and he falls asleep on the shore. When he wakes up, he notices that he has been tied down by 6 inch people called Lilliputians. After many different occurrences (including his saving the queen of Lilliputians by urinating on her flaming palace), Gulliver finds a normal sized boat that he takes to the middle of the ocean, where he is found by a barge.
In part two, Gulliver sets out on voyage again, and this time finds himself on an island inhabited by giants. That's as far as I read, so I can't give any more away.
Did you know that one of the terms of "midget" in Yiddish is "Liliputian"? Wonder where they got it from...
ReplyDeleteYeah, I knew lilliputian was a word because it's in the dictionary
ReplyDeleteDid you know the movie is coming out?
ReplyDeleteWhich version? There was a version a while ago with Ted Danson as the hero... the guy from Cheers. Wait--do you guys even know what Cheers is?
