Narrated by a fifteen-year-old autistic savant obsessed with Sherlock Holmes, this dazzling novel weaves together an old-fashioned mystery, a contemporary coming-of-age story, and a fascinating excursion into a mind incapable of processing emotions.
Christopher John Francis Boone knows all the countries of the world and their capitals and every prime number up to 7,057. Although gifted with a superbly logical brain, Christopher is autistic. Everyday interactions and admonishments have little meaning for him. At fifteen, Christopher’s carefully constructed world falls apart when he finds his neighbour’s dog Wellington impaled on a garden fork, and he is initially blamed for the killing.
Christopher decides that he will track down the real killer, and turns to his favourite fictional character, the impeccably logical Sherlock Holmes, for inspiration. But the investigation leads him down some unexpected paths and ultimately brings him face to face with the dissolution of his parents’ marriage. As Christopher tries to deal with the crisis within his own family, the narrative draws readers into the workings of Christopher’s mind.
And herein lies the key to the brilliance of Mark Haddon’s choice of narrator: The most wrenching of emotional moments are chronicled by a boy who cannot fathom emotions. The effect is dazzling, making for one of the freshest debut in years: a comedy, a tearjerker, a mystery story, a novel of exceptional literary merit that is great fun to read.
Mark Haddon is an author and scriptwriter who has written sixteen books, both for adults and children, and won two BAFTAS. He has received numerous awards for his bestselling novel The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time, including Whitbread Book of The Year.
电脑坏了,于是不甘心的浏览房东mm的书架,想要找本有趣的书来读。 她翻出这本,封面简单童稚,有如小朋友读物。 漫不经心,停停走走,将到第10页,我大概确定主角小男生是个自闭症儿童。 可笑的是,豆瓣上某人写这本书的书评,把主角叫成智障。 对自闭症的理解从二宮和也的...
評分看《深夜小狗神秘事件》的介绍,似乎是一本少儿推理文学。不过翻开书第一章,就让我纳闷了一下:怎么章节编号是“2”呢?往下翻看,发觉这编号还真有特色,2,3,5,7,11……不是奇数也不是偶数,一拍脑袋,这不都是质数嘛~因此从第一刻起,这本书就留给我一个相当独特的印象。而...
評分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...
評分阿弗,有着惊人的记忆力和超群的数学天赋。他知道世界上所有国家及其首都的名称,知道7507以内的所有质数,梦想是成为宇航员。他习惯生活在自己的小小世界,不爱跟人说话,对他来说,解决复杂的数学题很容易,理解他人的想法却很难。 一个深夜,他发现邻家小狗威灵顿死在了草坪...
評分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...
失望。說懸疑吧中途案件就解決瞭。說關注孤獨癥,感覺作者隻是以此為噱頭。沒啥內核。
评分很感人的故事。雖然故事主人公不懂得什麼叫感動,但是透過文字卻可以感動讀者
