Reviews "Like Irvine Welsh, I am a great admirer of Jane Austen." --Alexander McCall Smith "Another question I've been regularly asked over the past year is what models I had in mind when writing Curious Incident . Was it To Kill a Mockingbird ? Was it Catcher in the Rye ? In fact, the book most often in my mind was Pride and Prejudice ." --Mark Haddon, An incredibly funny, very upmarket love story with an enchanting heroine and the perfect romantic hero: a tartar with a heart of gold
