Jonathan Swift : a portrait

"Like his Gulliver in the land of Lilliput, Swift is a problem in perspective and scale. Victoria Glendinning, a prizewinning biographer, has taken a literary zoom lens to illuminate this proud and intractable man. She investigates at close range the main events and relationships of Swift's life, providing a compelling and provaocative portrait set in a rich tapestry of controversy and paradox." -- Page 2 of cover.
