- A Costa do Mosquito é o romance mais conhecido, e um dos mais, vibrantes, de Paul Theroux. Um livro "arrebatador", segundo o, escritor Anthony Burgess. Para o jornal The Washington Post,, trata-se de uma "visão impressionante e perturbadora da psique, americana". O autor constrói um texto ágil, cheio de surpresas,, para narrar a saga de Allie Fox, um homem inconformado com a, vida de consumo e sedentarismo dos Estados Unidos. É um, controverso inventor de aparelhos estranhos, pouco práticos, e, sustenta a família com trabalhos esporádicos para um fazendeiro, local. Com sonhos de criar uma sociedade perfeita, fundada nos, princípios da tecnologia e do domínio da natureza, ele abandona, os EUA com a mulher, seus dois meninos e as pequenas filhas, gêmeas, em busca de uma nova vida em meio à selva em Honduras., Através dos olhos de Charlie, seu filho mais velho,, acompanhamos a jornada. Determinado a construir uma civilização, melhor do que a que deixou para trás, embrenha-se na mata,, constrói casas, cultiva sementes trazidas dos Estados Unidos e, se dedica a suas invencionices. Combate missionários e procura, trazer melhorias aos índios. Quer redescobrir uma forma mais, pura de vida, em que o homem seja capaz de controlar a natureza, e fundamentar sua vida baseada na razão. Seu experimento, utópico, no entanto, pode ruir a qualquer momento, e sua, crescente loucura é uma ameaça à família que julgava proteger., Adaptado para o cinema nos anos 1980, A Costa do Mosquito é o, livro mais ambicioso e contundente de Paul Theroux, e um dos, grandes romances americanos das últimas décadas.
