Voyage to Faremido (Hungarian: Utazás Faremidóba, 1916)[1] is a utopian-satirical novel by Frigyes Karinthy. Written as a further adventure of Lemuel Gulliver of Gulliver's Travels, it recounts the story of a World War I pilot who crashes on a planet of inorganic beings. Their ideal society is contrasted with that of the contemporary world.

  1. ^ The English and Esperanto titles are literal translations of the Hungarian title. The novel is sometimes published together with Capillaria, which recounts Gulliver's sixth journey, in a combined edition. A German edition places the two together under the title: The New Travels of Lemuel Gulliver (German: Die neuen Reisen des Lemuel Gulliver). The two novels are distinct, however, and have little in common.
