Albany Reads Bookmark 2009The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
By Mark Haddon

When Christopher Boone, the main character and narrator of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, is confronted with the killing of his neighbor’s dog, he is determined to discover the murderer. The story of Christopher’s quest is told through his singular perspective, and as we follow him, we are offered a glimpse into the autistic world he inhabits.
