The Curious
Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a 2003 mystery novel by British writer
Mark Haddon. This book speak about Francis Boone, a 15-year-old boy who
describes himself as "a mathematician with some behavioural
difficulties" living in Swindon, Wiltshire. Although Christopher's
condition is not stated, the book's blurb refers to Asperger syndrome,
high-functioning autism, or savant syndrome. In July 2009, Haddon wrote on his
blog that "Curious Incident is not a book about Asperger's....if anything
it's a novel about difference, about being an outsider, about seeing the world
in a surprising and revealing way. The book is not specifically about any
specific disorder," and that he, Haddon, is not an expert on autism
spectrum disorder or Asperger syndrome.
