		In the hands of first-time novelist Haddon, Christopher is a fascinating case study and, above all, a sympathetic boy: not closed off, as the stereotype would have it, but too open-overwhelmed by sensations, bereft of the filters through which normal people screen their surroundings.
		Mark Haddon has written a moving novel about love and bravery through the eyes of a British autistic boy.
		Haddon's real skill is an understatement that allows the reader to comprehend what is going on even if Christopher cannot.

		Mark Haddon's view of the inner workings of the mind of the main character Christopher Boone, a young man with learning and behaviour difficulties are brilliant.This character is totally believeable and really comes to life and I defy anyone not to see their own thought processes in him.
		The curious incident is how Mark Haddon came up with this highly original and imaginative idea for a book.

		Haddon's ear for dialogue is virtually non-existent and his characters are wooden.
		Haddon covers it well with several devices: Christopher's endearing character, his seemingly profound insights into books and fiction, his grasp of science and maths and, of course, the feel-good ending.
		With regards to the person with Asperger's (Cordelia)who objects to Haddon's `cavalier' approach,I read an interview with him on the eve of winning the Whitbread and he intimated that the association of his protagonist/narrator with the Syndrome has been a double-edged sword.
