Description
It is a literary journey without borders. Each episode I explore a work, an author or a literary current from different corners of the planet. Because books are also passports, and each story brings us closer to different cultures, languages and realities.
Today I am revisiting a classic piece of satire that’s as sharp today as it was nearly 300 years ago. That’s right, we’re talking about Jonathan Swift’s "A Modest Proposal"
