This paper explores the symptoms and factors of autism represented in Mark Haddon’s novel, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time (2003). The protagonist of the novel, named Christopher, is portrayed as having an autistic disability, involving symptoms such as fixations on certain objects, extreme sensitivity to touch and sound, and panic attacks. The text’s representation of autism, however, is divergent from autism in reality, currently considered a neurological disorder caused by differences in the brain, rather than a psychological problem affected by the external environment. For example, unlike autistic people in reality, who have difficulty understanding linguistic metaphor due to differences in their brain function, Christopher reveals a high level of comprehension of linguistic metaphor. Taking autism as a literary device, Haddon’s novel freely appropriates it, and segregates itself from scientific discourse. One remarkable effect of the intentional “misrepresentation” of autism is to suggest deep and complex factors that lie behind the character’s autism. Specifically, in the novel, the protagonist’s autistic disability is presented as a sign of post-traumatic stress disorder, which results less from neurological condition than from traumatic experiences and relationships made in social spaces. Through a close reading of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, this paper examines how the social environment is shown as being responsible for causing and developing Christopher’s autistic symptoms, with the ultimate goal of addressing the importance of creating a dialogical social space to promote recovery in individuals situated throughout the autism spectrum.
