Mark Haddon, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
Fifteen-year-old Christopher John Francis Boone is mathematically
gifted and socially hopeless, raised in a working-class home by
parents who can barely cope with their child's quirks. He takes
everything that he sees (or is told) at face value, and is unable to
sort out the strange behavior of his elders and peers. Amazon.com
(For me reading this novel provided the opportunity to be inside the
skin of a teenager with autism. I found the experience both moving
and comfortable. Sylvia)
