When Christopher discovers the dead body of his neighbour's dog, Wellington, speared by a garden fork, he decides to investigate the mysterious incident. Armed with his extraordinary analytical skills and passion for logic, Christopher embarks on a journey to uncover the truth behind the dog's death. As Christopher delves deeper into the investigation, he unravels a series of secrets that go far beyond the dog's demise. His quest takes him on an unexpected path, challenging his perception of the world and exposing him to a series of challenges and revelations. Along the way, Christopher's journey becomes a powerful exploration of his own limitations and a testament to his determination to overcome them. One of the central themes in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time is the nature of truth and how it can be perceived differently by individuals.

The novel serves as a reminder that meaningful communication goes beyond words and that understanding can be achieved through patience, compassion, and a willingness to bridge the gap between different minds. Christopher Boone is an extraordinary protagonist who captivates readers with his unparalleled intellect, honesty, and vulnerability. Haddon skillfully portrays Christopher's thought processes, providing insights into his meticulous observations, his love for patterns, and his challenges in navigating the complexities of the world. As Christopher ventures outside his comfort zone and confronts the unfamiliar, he undergoes profound personal growth, gaining a deeper understanding of himself and the people around him. Mark Haddon's writing style in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time is concise, direct, and reflective of Christopher's logical thinking. The novel is presented as Christopher's own account, written in the form of a journal. Haddon expertly captures the nuances of Christopher's voice, creating a narrative that is both authentic and immersive. The use of diagrams, mathematical puzzles, and numbered chapters further enhances the reader's immersion into Christopher's mind, reinforcing the novel's unique perspective.
