No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
Over the course of a four-day yacht trip, an assortment of guests goes through the motions of socializing with their wealthy host while pursuing their own disparate goals. As the guests are separated into artists and non-artists, youth and widows, males and females, Mosquitoes explores gender and societal roles, sexual tension, and unrequited love as Faulkner delves into what it means to be an artist.
Faulkner' s second novel, Mosquitoes was first published in 1927, but did not receive any critical response until his literary reputation was well-established.
