The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time
1 journaler for this copy...
Abstract:
"Christopher John Francis Boone knows all the countries of the world and their capitals and every prime number up to 7.057. He relates well to animals but has no understanding of human emotions. He cannot stand to be touched. And he detests the color yellow.
This improbable story of Christopher's quest to investigate the suspicious death of a neighborhood dog makes for one of the most captivating, unusual, and widely heralded novels in recent years."

This book is a long time in my shelf now...
And when I saw that this is a book that will be reviewed during next online-meeting of my company's book-club reading banned books in the US, I got it out of the shelf. Once opened - I just read it.
It was a quick read (two days) and I flew through the first 60 pages in a flash and I so much liked it and I just had a great time! I loved Christopher and I couldn't put the book down!
Then it slowed down a bit and I missed the drive of the beginning. I still liked the story - but it lost it's greatness.
In any case I was impressed by Christopher's way to manage and handle things during his trip to London. Kudos!
Also I learnt from the Monty Hall Problem and if I should get lost I'm sure to spiral my way till I'm saved. ;)
