The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night Time


Rating:★★★★
Category:Books
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Author:Mark Haddon


A book which I desire to start reading and finishing it within few hours.

Very unique and brilliant way of writing a novel.

The chapters are numbered according to prime numbers. The book is filled with drawings, illustrations, mathematical sums, maps, etc. which makes it very interesting and fun to read. I like the reasons given for disliking yellow and brown color in chapter 131.

The story is narrated by a fifteen-year-old autistic boy, Christopher Boone. The investigation of the death of his neighbor’s dog, Wellington, leads him down some unexpected paths and eventually reveals his parents’ broken marriage to him.
