Ihan hauska tarina, päähenkilö on melko autistinen tiedemies jonka sosiaaliset taidot ovat varsin vajavaiset. Juoni ei ole millään tavalla yllättävä ja huumorikin on paikoin vähän väkinäistä, mutta tämmöisenä nopeana välipalana ei niin haittaa. (  ) Iira | Apr 17, 2018 |  Hauska tarina miehestä, joka etsii itselleen vaimoa tekemänsä tieteellisen testin avulla. Päähenkilön luonteenpiirteet muistuttavat asperger piirteitä ja hänellä on hyvin piintyneet tavat elää elämänsä. Monipolvisten vaiheiden kautta kiinnostus erilaiseen naiseen vie voiton ja päähenkilö huomaa olevansa rakastunut. (  ) natalie_66 | Jul 30, 2014 | näyttää 2/2
 It’s cheering to read about, and root for, a romantic hero with a developmental disorder. “The Rosie Project,” Simsion’s debut and a best seller in his native Australia, reminds us that people who are neurologically atypical have many of the same concerns as the rest of us: companionship, ethics, alcohol. The debut novel of Graeme Simsion, an Australian IT consultant turned writer, The Rosie Project is a romantic comedy with sublime character precision and soppy but gratifying genre fulfilment...It's easily as impressive as in an obvious predecessor, Mark Haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. Second, The Rosie Project is extremely funny. The reader is in a privileged position, able to see Don's faux pas when he doesn't, but also has a huge amount of affection for the character, whose dispassionate view of illogical social norms is captured with snort-inducing deadpan accuracy. Warmly recommended.  Whether we become what we are through our genes or through our experiences in life is the old chestnut that this debut novelist tackles with refreshing originality, wit and verve...Filled with engaging specificities of character and setting, the professor's struggle to understand the "fundamental, insurmountable problem of who I was" also becomes a poignant universal story about discovering how best to reconcile logic and emotion, head and heart, and connect our lives with others.

Don Tillman, professor of genetics, has never been on a second date. Then a chance encounter gives him an idea. He will design a questionnaire-a sixteen-page, scientifically researched document-to find the perfect partner. She will most definitely not be a barmaid, a smoker, a drinker or a late-arriver. Rosie Jarman is all these things. She is strangely beguiling, fiery and intelligent. And she is also on a quest of her own. She's looking for her biological father, a search that a certain DNA expert might just be able to help her with-even if he does wear quick-dry clothes and eat lobster every single Tuesday night.
