1/6/2010 Claire Caterer said: It's a book everyone should read about the unique perspective each of us carries. Even if you don't know anyone with autism (I know several folks), this story will resonate with you. Each of us sometimes feels isolated, alone, a stranger in a strange land--and this story is beautifully told.

11/27/2008 Marilyn Grant said: A murder mystery that takes a 15-year-old Autistic boy down a road the reader doesn't anticipate going. Mark Haddon does an excellent job getting inside young Christopher's head and an even better job at taking us with him. A great read!
