Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime Early Reflections

What Ive written below are the sorts of things you could think up as you develop your own reflective reading ledger based on your own interpretations or reading of the text and issues that arise in class discussion. Themes that underly The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night clipping 1) a study of an adolescent boy isolated from normal inclusion in society because of Aspergers Syndrome 2) A mystery about the slaying/ rack up/slaughter of a dog 3) A study of a broken family betrayed trust ) The curse of limited means working class status or struggling financially and the pressures that brings A study of Relationships Pressures of life Societys attitude to those who are different or clearly intellectually handicapped How things interpreted for granted by conventional or rank-and-file society are confronting for those marginalised groups without reliable social support networks or with limited trust networks What are the ramifications of the novel what righteous lessons d oes it provide about how we should could consider the disabled more sensitively?It also examines the importance of roles of authority (eg police, teachers, parents) for people who rely heavily on clear parameters of power structure and role expectations for them to maintain a sense of security and the fulfilment of expectations. Whereas we can most frequently read peoples emotions from the tone of their voice and ocular cues (ie facial expressions, body stance, arm gestures), someone like Christopher Boone is not afforded that luxury Consequently, he is confronted with difficulties associated with taking words upon a too literal meaning.Furthermore, his spirit of what is normal and his interpretation of reality is different from that of other people. He lives in a virtual emotional cocoon like Rain Man . Christopher Boone is a reliable narrator in-so-far as he is meticulous in his recollections of detail and specific events. None of his recollections are tainted by his own vested interests or prejudices. However, his line is noticeably naive because he is completely oblivious to the shenanigans that have occurred in his street and involving his parents.He has no understanding of the tension that existed in his parents marriage. Furthermore, although he can call various tantrums and spats, he is unable to make any subsequent links between those and empathy (understanding the way other people feel) with the stress they felt nor an demonstrate an sentiency of the way in which his specifically taxing condition contributed to their circumstances. That is not to say, however, that Christopher Boone is totally to blame.There are the aspects of his parents character, their social status and their lack of affluence which leaves them short of the necessary keenness nor understanding of welfare that may have been available to help them through their trying circumstances. Therefore, the account provided us, although factually correct, leaves ample scope for us to r ead between the lines and to form our own interpretations about the character of those other people including Siobhan, Mrs Anderson, the policemen, Mr & Mrs Sheers, and Christophers parents. Haddon leaves these textual gaps for us to fill admirably.
