Sinopsis

Condición del ejemplar: Good. Christopher John Francis Boone is fifteen years old. He knows all the countries of the world and their capitals and every prime number up to 7,057. He loves animals and the color red, but he dislikes being touched, finds strangers confusing and has never gone farther than the end of his road on his own. When Christopher discovers his neighbor’s dog, Wellington, killed in the middle of the night, he is determined to find out who did it, just like his hero, Sherlock Holmes. He decides to write a book about his investigation. But as he gathers clues, he uncovers secrets about his own family that turn his carefully ordered world upside down, and he sets out on a frightening and courageous journey alone to London. Told entirely in Christopher’s distinctive voice, complete with diagrams, maps and mathematical puzzles, Mark Haddon’s novel offers a funny, poignant and unforgettable view of the world through the eyes of a boy whose mind works differently from those around him. Winner of the Whitbread Book of the Year and adapted into an award-winning stage play, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a modern classic that has moved and delighted millions of readers.
