About this listen
Jonathan Swift’s A Modest Proposal is a biting satirical essay suggesting that the impoverished Irish might ease their economic troubles by selling their children as food to the rich. Beneath the shocking proposal lies a powerful critique of British policy and apathy toward Irish suffering, cloaked in sharp irony and wit. Tags (horizontal format):
