the curious incident of dog the dog in the night-time by Mark Haddon (On Amazon)
I just finished the curious incident of dog the dog in the night-time. It tells the story of a boy who has “developmental issues” which I took to be autism. The autistic boy authors the book, telling what might otherwise be a mundane story from an unfamiliar point of view.
I found the narrative surprisingly evocative, and found that my moods swung wildly as they mimicked the autistic’s boy’s moods. I can’t exactly say why that was, but it makes me want to reccommend the novel to everyone, especially if education, autism or children interest you. It took me about two days to read, so what do you have to lose anyway?
