Kimmie's Done

I finished the challenge. Here is the final list. The Power and the Glory was my favorite. Justine could have been written by some goofy teenage boy.

Gulliver's Travels from Kimmie

Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift

Gulliver's Travels is a satire on politics and religion. Gulliver is a ships doctor who winds up in strange lands at the edges of the earth. He meets the Liliputs and
Brobdingnags. He finds a flying city and another land controlled by intelligent horses served by savage humanoid creatures called Yahoos.

"Gulliver's Travels" was considered obscene and wicked.
