About this audiobook
Ireland is poor, and its streets are full of beggars and hungry children. A calm, reasonable voice offers a solution: sell the babies of the poor as food for the rich. He explains the numbers, the cooking, and the benefits to the economy.
Jonathan Swift's famous 1729 satire attacks cruelty by pretending to be reasonable, read by Ian Michael Turrell. Twenty-two minutes of savage humor, a landmark of the essay form.
