The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
Christopher John Francis Boone knows all the
countries of the world and their capitals and every prime number up to 7,057.
He relates well to animals but has no understanding of human emotions. He
cannot stand to be touched. And he detests the color yellow.
This improbable story of
Christopher's quest to investigate the suspicious death of a neighborhood dog
makes for one of the most captivating, unusual, and widely heralded novels in
recent years. Despite his overwhelming fear of interacting with people,
Christopher, a mathematically gifted, autistic boy, decides to investigate the
murder of a neighbor's dog and uncovers secrets about his mother.
