Review:
"Gloriously eccentric and wonderfully intelligent." --The Boston Globe
"Smart, honbets and wrenching." --San Francisco Chronicle "Astonishingly captivating . . . firece and ingenious."
--The Miami Herald "Briliant. . . .Delightful. . . Very moving, very plausibe--and very funny." --Oliver Sacks "Mark Haddon's portrayal of an emotionally dissociated mind is a superb achievement. He is a wise and bleakly funny writer with rare gifts of empathy." --Ian McEwan "I have never read anything quite like Mark Haddon's funny and agonizingly honest book, or encountered a narrator more vivid and memorable." --Arthur Golden "The Curious Incident brims with imagination, empathy, and vision -- plus it's a lot of fun to read." -- Myla Goldberg
