A Modest Proposal

In "A Modest Proposal," Jonathan Swift delivers a darkly humorous and incisive critique of British colonialism and the dire social conditions in 18th-century Ireland. Through ironic suggestions that impoverished parents should sell their children as food, Swift highlights the severity of poverty and the apathy of the British government, employing a masterful use of satire. This enduring work, first published in 1729, continues to provoke thought and discussion, making it a vital piece of literature. The audiobook is narrated by Malk Williams, bringing Swift's sharp wit to life.
