Christopher è un quindicenne colpito dal morbo di Asperger, una forma di autismo. Ha una mente straordinariamente allenata alla matematica ma assolutamente non avvezza ai rapporti umani: odia il giallo, il marrone e l'essere sfiorato. Ama gli schemi, gli elenchi e la deduzione logica. Non è mai andato più in là del negozio dietro l'angolo, ma quando scopre il cane della vicina trafitto da un forcone capisce di trovarsi di fronte a uno di quei misteri che il suo eroe, Sherlock Holmes, era così bravo a risolvere. Inizia così a indagare ...

A Thoughtful and Instantly Lovable Perspective

4 stars

This is a story about the weirdness of the world as understood by Christopher John Francis Boone, a boy with autism who lives with his father in a small town in the UK. Christopher and his idiosyncrasies are instantly lovable. Through the eyes of a boy who thinks of everyone as different from himself, we’re reminded just how many common threads bind us all together.

Review of 'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Do you know what it's like to be Asperger's? Through this reading you can open the door to the concept. I cannot judge whether the portrait is good; in any case, it is still an introduction. But beware, it's a novel. Simple, but at the same time profound, it does not convey anger, but detects it and visualizes it through a rogue immersed in a world that neither understands nor understands it, but is used so that we can begin that understanding.
