The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

Noticed this book on the NY Times bestseller list and also on the Whitbread Prizewinner list, so when I saw it on a table in the library the other day, I picked it up and started reading it. Written from the point of view of an autistic boy, it's a bit of a mystery and a lot of philosophy, quite compelling, very interesting, very unusual. From the author of several children's books, none of which I've read, who also worked for several years with autistic children, it was absorbing enough to take my mind off the hurricane on occasion in the last couple of days.
