Overview

Faulkner's second novel follows a bohemian cast of artists, socialites, and dilettantes as they set sail on a four-day excursion aboard the Nausikaa. Faulkner's quick wit and endless appetite for satire make this audiobook a fascinating exploration of character, as well as a rare glimpse into the author himself. The novel explores questions of sex and sexuality, as well as the societal role of the artist. Inspired by his own participation in the arts community in New Orleans, Mosquitoes is an engaging and delightful novel from one of America's greatest writers.

[Mosquitoes] is full of the fine kind of swift and lusty writing that comes from a healthy, fresh pen.

Faulkner has a sense of character; he has a sense of humor; he has a sense of style; and for his new novel, Mosquitoes, he has found an amusing and…original setting.
