Week 50: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

Mark Haddon's novel was first published in 2003. It’s a unique story that’s told from the perspective of a 15-year-old boy Christopher Boone, who describes himself as “a mathematician with some behavioral difficulties." The novel begins with Christopher discovering that his neighbour's dog, Wellington, has been mysteriously killed with a garden fork. Christopher sets out to find the person who killed the dog, and what begins as a simple investigation quickly unfolds into a deeper, more complex journey that reveals secrets about his own family and forces him to step far outside his comfort zone.
