The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

gut

The story is written in the first-person perspective of Christopher John Francis Boone, a 15-year-old boy with Asperger syndrome living in Swindon, Wiltshire. Although Christopher's condition within the autism spectrum is not stated explicitly within the novel, the summary on the book's inside cover or back cover describes it as Asperger syndrome.
It won the 2003 Whitbread Book of the Year and the 2004 Commonwealth Writers' Prize for Best First Book.
I found it very well written but it can get a little sad and tedious at times. However, the ending brightens up the prospective and it is really encouraging.
