The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time. Mark Haddon. 1999.

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time is a murder mystery novel like no other. The detective, and narrator, is Christopher Boone. Christopher is fifteen. He knows a very great deal about maths and very little about human beings. He loves lists, patterns and the truth. He hates the colours yellow and brown and being touched. He has never gone further than the end of the road on his own, but when he finds a neighbour's dog murdered he sets out on a terrifying journey which will turn his whole world upside down.


Opinion:

The story is told from the point of view of a young adult with Asperger's syndrome who through the chapters shows us his way of thinking and acting and for the reader it becomes well understood, at the same time that it hooks you to have fun.

I recommend this book if you want to learn English.
