Review of "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time"

In my opinion "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" is a very great book, which I would recommend to my classmates and all other people, who are able to read. It's very, very well written and I have to say, that I understood nearly all sentences and enjoyed reading very much. The style, Mark Haddon is writing, is absolutely amazing and the way he see's the things from Christopher's perspective (because the book is written in the first-person perspective) is really well implemented. Also, the autism (Asperger's syndrome) of Christopher is very clear and is obvious to people, which is by the way a good fact about the book.
All in all I'm very glad, that I chose this book and I hope some others will read it, too, because it's really worthwhile.

  9. I can't explain it in English very well, so in German: Ich wollte damit ausdrücken, dass sich sein Autismus sehr schnell bemerkbar macht, sprich: es ist klar, dass er anders als andere Menschen ist.
