I read this and liked it. I felt that I learned something about how a mildly autistic teenage boy might think.

I've read this, too. I liked it, would probably rate it a 4 out of 5. To me, the ending was confusing. Author Nicole Krauss is wife of author Jonathan Safran Foer, who wrote "Everything is Illuminated" and "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close." I prefered Krauss to Foer.
