(Mark Haddon)
If you have something very important to do, if your duties just can?t
wait and your boss is on the point of firing you, don?t reach for this
book! Totally unputdownable, you won?t be able to stop reading.Christopher
Boon is a 15year-old autistic boy, whose main problem is inability to
understand people. Numbers, stars, maths? Of course. Human emotions?
Not really. But one day, his limited world turns out not to be as safe
as Christopher thought. Wellington, the neighbor?s dog is killed. And
Christopher cannot understand it. Why and who could have done such a
horrible thing? Maybe it would be better not to know, ?cause it will
cause much trouble for living in a closed, logical world boy. He will
have to solve mysteries, that would never occur to him before. He will
have to struggle with the real world and his own fears. He will have to
build his world one more time, but would it be as safe as the one
before?Anyway, Christopher decides to solve the Wellington?s murder
in the way his favourite detective, Sherlock Holmes, would do this.
Although the riddle is tough, he finally manages to find out the brutal
truth. And in this moment his worldview is being destroyed. He
realizes, that the world he?s been living in, is only an illusion,
where nothing is what it seemed to be. Now he will have to cope with
the new reality.Smart and funny at the same time, Mark Haddon?s novel is one of those books, that will be engraved your memory forever.
