Science Fiction
With more than five million copies sold, Flowers for
Algernon is the beloved, classic story of a mentally
disabled man whose experimental quest for intelligence
mirrors that of Algernon, an extraordinary lab mouse. In
poignant diary entries, Charlie tells how a brain
operation increases his IQ and changes his life. As the
experimental procedure takes effect, Charlie's
intelligence expands until it surpasses that of the
doctors who engineered his metamorphosis. The experiment
seems to be a scientific breakthrough of paramount
importance--until Algernon begins his sudden, unexpected
deterioration. Will the same happen to Charlie? An
American classic that inspired the award-winning movie
Charly.
