Mark Haddon is a British novelist and poet, best known for his 2003 novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time. He was educated at Uppingham School and Merton College, Oxford, where he studied English.

In 2003, Haddon won the Whitbread Book of the Year Award and in 2004, the Commonwealth Writers' Prize Overall Best First Book for his novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, a book which is written from the perspective of a boy with Aspergers syndrome. Haddon's knowledge of Aspergers syndrome, a type of autism, comes from his work with autistic people as a young man. In an interview at Powells.com, Haddon claimed that this was the first book that he wrote intentionally for an adult audience; he was surprised when his publisher suggested marketing it to both adult and child audiences. His second adult-novel, A Spot of Bother, was published in September 2006.

Mark Haddon is also known for his series of Agent Z books, one of which, Agent Z and the Penguin from Mars, was made into a 1996 Children's BBC sitcom. He also wrote the screenplay for the BBC television adaptation of Raymond Briggs's story Fungus the Bogeyman, screened on BBC1 in 2004. He also wrote the 2007 BBC television drama Coming Down the Mountain.

Haddon is a vegetarian, and enjoys vegetarian cookery. He describes himself as a 'hard-line atheist'. In an interview with The Observer, Haddon said "I am atheist in a very religious mould". His atheism might be inferred from The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time in which the main character declares that those who believe in God are stupid.

Mark Haddon's bitterly funny debut novel, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, is a murder mystery of sorts--one told by an autistic version of Adrian Mole. Fifteen-year-old Christopher John Francis Boone is mathematically gifted and socially hopeless, raised in a working-class home by parents who can barely cope with their child's quirks. He takes everything that he sees (or is told) at face value, and is unable to sort out the strange behavior of his elders and peers.

Late one night, Christopher comes across his neighbor's poodle, Wellington, impaled on a garden fork. Wellington's owner finds him cradling her dead dog in his arms, and has him arrested. After spending a night in jail, Christopher resolves--against the objection of his father and neighbors--to discover just who has murdered Wellington. He is encouraged by Siobhan, a social worker at his school, to write a book about his investigations, and the result--quirkily illustrated, with each chapter given its own prime number--is The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time.

Haddon's novel is a startling performance. This is the sort of book that could turn condescending, or exploitative, or overly sentimental, or grossly tasteless very easily, but Haddon navigates those dangers with a sureness of touch that is extremely rare among first-time novelists. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is original, clever, and genuinely moving: this one is a must-read. --Jack Illingworth, Amazon.ca--This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

这又是一本难以定论的书,喜欢的人会非常喜欢,不喜欢的人会觉得莫名其妙吧。我是喜欢看的。宣传称此书在销量榜上打败过《哈里波特》,还获得过许多图书奖,虽然可能有夸大的嫌疑,但在我看来还是有理由的。只不过,这样口味特别的书,居然能赢得大众的欢迎,看来大众的口味也...

看到这本名字怪怪的书,心中一凛. 章节从2开始,然后是3,然后是5、7、11…… 慢慢才明白,不是章节数错了,都是质数。 记得前时读过的一本书,说到质数,说到彼此孤独的质数。 心中倏忽一动,如潮涌过…… 留心世界的人,处处都有江山。 这句话从某一个哀伤的故事里读来...

“我叫克里斯托夫·约翰·佛朗西斯·伯恩。我知道世界上所有的国家及其首都,我还知道7,057内的每个质数。” 这本书只有质数章节。奇怪。但奇怪之处远不止此。书里充满了表情符号、智力题、地图、清单、有拼写错误的信件…… 只需读过开头几章,便可明白这一切都源于这位从不...

情节文字皆平淡,天才白痴少年的视角。朗读不错,但不喜对父母的朗读,读得恶狠狠,听得心惊肉跳,所幸篇幅少。

关于自闭症儿童的故事

仿佛心里最不愿意近人情的一部分因为能够被叙述出来而得到了安慰,而另一些还愿意近人情的部分则感到自己应该更具同理心一点

前半部分还没有什么特别的感触,对于这种写作风格,在看阿尔吉侬的花束时也已经接触过了,所以感觉不到什么惊艳。真正触动我的是写到主角来到伦敦,爸爸跟着找过来和妈妈吵架,大声质问说你给他写信?写信又算得了什么?我给他做饭,我被叫到学校去,我给他换衣服,你做了什么?你就写写信?看到这一刻忽然意识到,在主角的视角之外,成年人到底过着什么样的生活。太苦了,就算是最后一切都在向好的方向发展,还是太苦了,这种和向往更好的生活纠缠在一起不可分离的苦,看得大哭
