De fantasierijke roman van de Ierse schrijver Jonathan Swift over de avontuurlijke reizen van scheepsarts Lemuel Gulliver naar de verste delen van de wereld is al zo'n 300 jaar een klassieker en een groots werk in de Engelstalige literatuur. Eerst bezoekt Gulliver's schip het eiland van de kleine kuil, waar de bewoners slechts 15 centimeter hoog zijn. De hoogte komt overeen met het niveau van de politieke discussies van deze mensen. Zijn tweede reis leidt hem naar naar Brobdingnag, dat wordt geteisterd door veldslagen, en naar een vliegend eiland.

Ein englischer Geschäftsmann, Mr Wood, hat einen glorreichen Einfall, wie er den Iren ihr Geld auf ebenso geschickte wie schamlose Art und Weise legal aus deren Taschen ziehen kann.

Over the 20-year period that I was trapped in an abusive marriage, I left and reconciled with my husband many times before God gave me the courage to break free once and for all. I wanted to find a book that would soothe my troubled spirit and show me clearly the Scriptures that speak of God's heart for hurting and abused women. I could not find such a book and so, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I wrote this 40-day devotional. This devotional aims to comfort and uplift the hurting heart of any woman who, like me, was overwhelmed by the pain of an abusive marriage.
