在這裏提過《
作家mark haddon卻將這些元素化作小說《the curious incident of the dog in the night-time》。
找不到理由不去看個究竟。
因為用第一身描述，且主角是一個十五歲的自閉青年，文字淺白，看罷又像多了一種思考方法和系統，十分享受。（還是我也變成自閉，感同身受！？）
另外一個喜愛這書的原因，頗奇怪，就是封面的書名和作者，都只是以英文小階作設計（例如：mark haddon而不是Mark Haddon）。如果編輯不介意的話，我一般也會用相同手法處理英文題目、標題和封面等，因為由小時候開始，便對英文符號為何要有兩種寫法充滿疑惑，沒有大小階其中一款，對閱讀的影響可以為零，你仍然可以讀得出那個生字。當不再出現大小階這種硬套的考慮，設計時反而變得有彈性了。
雖然熱門，但仍然值得推介。

yes, this is a good book. I enjoyed it very much too. And interesting point you brought up about the use of only lower case letters on the cover. I never took note of that until you mentioned it. As an editor myself, it'd nice interesting to find out why the editor left it that way.
wow this is one of my fav books i read last year! the narration is real interesting, as naive as little prince.
just the ending (at the train station) is a bit over----
but it still deserves a five-star rating!
so, 22 jan, a new year dog please!!
