The book, The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night - Time written by Mark Haddon is about a guy that has autism, named Christopher that goes through the process of solving the mystery of who killed his neighbor’s dog Wellington. So far from where I have been read up to, The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night - Time is an interesting book to me. It made me curious and questioned about many things in the book.
Although the fact that Christopher has autism, he is very smart. It is evidenced when he introduced himself to the reader :
“My name is Christopher John Francis Boone. I know all the countries of the world and their capital cities and every prime number up to 7,057.” - page 2
He also explains a formula for how to find prime numbers.
“First you write down all the positive whole numbers in the world.
Then you take away all the numbers that are multiples of 2... [and] 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and so on.
The numbers that are left are the prime numbers.” - page 11
In addition, I questioned if Christopher’s mom is still alive or not. In the book, when his dad announced that Christopher’s mom died, but the father did not really explain what kind of heart diseases caused her died. Plus, Christopher weirdly did not attend to his mom’s funeral. And since one of his neighbor explained to him that his mom and the owner of Wellington, cheated on his wife for Christopher’s mom. Maybe that was the reason his mom left, and so Christopher’s dad has to make up an excuse that his mom died.
I also questioned who killed the dog, Wellington. I predict either Mr.Shears, or Christopher’s father killed Wellington. I think Mr.Shears killed the dog, because maybe he was in an argument with his wife, Mrs.Shears about cheating on her. When they were in the argument, Wellington was defending the wife, so maybe Mr.Shears got bad and used the garden fork, and stabbed Wellington. Also I think, his dad maybe killed Wellington, because his dad could of been in an argument with Mr.Shears then his dad could of killed the dog.
