The Curious Incident of Dog In the Nighttime

Recently I read this little book by Mark Haddon about a simple enough story of an autistic young boy named Christopher Boone. The premise is interesting, a first hand tale from the autistic boy indeed gives you a deep insight about how his mind functions and how he strives to keep things simple and under control, also how he gets overwhelmed when faced to situations which are inherently complex(human relations) or places involving lot of people.
The hand drawn pictures and graphics along with some dose of mathematics problems are a treat.
Overall a good book and you get to take a lot from it.
