The books involve the travels and discussions of Lemuel Gulliver XVI, a direct descendant of the famous explorer. Commander Gulliver was sent on a twenty-five year mission around the solar system to find a possible home for the world’s excess population. He found none. On returning to Earth he and his friends have visited several countries and discussed with state leaders and academics various questions of import for the world. He is telling of his experiences in a series of books that he has titled “. . .And Gulliver Returns . . . . . . . In Search of Utopia.” Commander Gulliver plans fourteen books. He has completed the first seven. His busy schedule allows him only a limited time to write. That is why he has enlisted the prize winning Jacqueline Slow to assist him. They have asked me to assist with the editing. But their writing was so clear there wasn’t much editing to do. I did however insert sub-titles when it seemed appropriate. It seemed to me that it would help you, the reader, to keep focused when their discussions proceeded. The table of contents for each book will allow you to zero in on an issue if you don’t have time to read the whole book. Let me know if you like it or not. Book 1—Gulliver returns to earth in the year 2025, meets a TV newsman, invites him home where he discusses the issues of overpopulation and licensing parents as a way of reducing the population while decreasing societies problems caused by uncared for children. Preserving the Earth is fundamental before we can generate a utopia. Gulliver’s three friends arrive and they go to lunch to discuss their upcoming trip. [mehr]

“Go into the morning sun on the river, into the reflections, the shimmer and the shadows, see the camel graze and the perching steppe eagle; he flies now, enter him and go into the wind. Melt into the rain and fall onto the ground, become absorbed into the body of the earth mother, flow from her, back into the world.” Yura watched Oyon’s eyes across the fire. She held his gaze. They were already close professionally but here was this new thing binding them together. Was this feeling, his spirit blending with hers? She seemed to shimmer in the firelight. The metal strips and little bells on her necklace tinkled as she stood up and moved toward him" [mehr]

"At first the forest was green and light with wide clearings between the trees. She saw many little birds and deer, who told her the way. The forest started to get darker with bigger, older trees. Not so much sunlight reached the forest floor. Then she met a bear. She was not frightened and spoke to the bear in its own language. “I seek the forgotten castle.” said the girl “The forgotten castle? queried the bear. “That is secret, we bears do not speak of it. It is quiet here now in these woods. We do not encourage humans. What if you find him? Will it be as before, with the hunting of bears? Many of my ancestors were hunted and killed. The bear said this with such feeling and looked sad. Then he turned and moved off. The girl carried on then she met a group of wolves. Again she spoke to them in their own language, “Do you know of the lost castle oh fleet of foot? [mehr]
