Lindalino The five-paragraph episode in Part III, telling of the rebellion of the surface city of Lindalino against the flying island of Laputa, was an obvious allegory to the affair of Drapier's Letters of which Swift was proud. Source: Internet

Wives often request to leave the island to visit the land below; however, these requests are almost never granted because the women who leave Laputa never want to return. Source: Internet
