I'm going to put both your suggestions on my TBR pile because I loved Mark Haddon's work and would like to see how others approach similar characters.
Also - a bit different now, but have you ever read Skallagrigg? This is one of my favourite novels and features characters with cerebral palsy. This is one of the few books I would give 5/5 stars (actually I'd give it 5.5/5  ) |
I haven't read either of those, but after seeing you gave the latter a 5.5/5 star review, I'll have to chek it out.

That's a very apt way to put it, DiapDealer.
The Speed of Dark certainly doesn't grab you right out of the gate, but once it does, it's got you.
