The Curious Incident of the
Dog in the Night-time |
||||||||||
|
"The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time" is an astonishing novel - funny, sad and utterly unputdownable. Fifteen-year-old Christopher has a photographic memory. He understands maths. He understands science. But this intelligent youth lives in the functional hinterland of autism - and what he can't understand are other human beings. Every day is an investigation for him, because of all the aspects of human life that he does not quite get. When the dog next door is killed with a garden fork, Christopher becomes quietly persistent in his desire to find out what has happened and tugs away at the world around him until a lot of secrets unravel messily. |
