Synopsis
The 13-year-old son of a fanatical father tells the story of his family's journey from the New England suburbs to the Honduran jungle. Abominating what he sees as the decadence and horror of the 20th century, Allie Fox abandons civilization, keeping his family intact by sheer force of will and his tortured, quixotic genius, as they move inexorably through a diseased and dirty Eden towards darkness and terror. THE MOSQUITO COAST was an American Book Award nominee in 1982.

Industry Reviews
"This is not just his finest novel so far. It is--in a characteristically hooded way--a novelist's act of self-definition, a midterm appraisal of his own resources. It is a wonderful book, with so many levels to it that it feels bottomless. ...You could light a city with it."
Saturday Review - Jonathan Raban (02/01/1982)

"A fine entertainment, a gripping adventure story, a remarkable comic portrait of minds and cultures at cross-purposes."
New York Times Book Review - Thomas R. Edwards (07/14/1982)

"An epic of paranoid obsession that swirls the reader headlong to deposit him on a black mudbank of horror."
Rose

"As oppressive and powerful as its central character. It bursts with inventiveness."
Rose

"An adventure story of the most exemplary kind....A work of genuine inspiration, intensely realized."
Rose
