A
Introduction and Context
In Mark Haddon's novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, the story is told from Christopher Boone's perspective. Christopher is a young boy who perceives the world differently due to his autism spectrum condition. The narrative is first-person, giving readers direct insight into his thoughts, feelings, and interpretations of events. A key phrase from the text states, 'I find people confusing.' This perspective shapes the tone, making the story both intimate and sometimes unsettling. The novel explores how Christopher's unique perception influences his interactions and understanding of his environment. By examining this point of view, students can better appreciate how perspective affects storytelling, character development, and reader engagement.
