Description
Mentally disabled Charlie Gordon participates in an experiment which turns him into a genius but only temporarily.
"Flowers For Algernon" made its first appearance as a short story which was rapidly and widely anthologized, and translated internationally. It received further acclaim as a moderated television drama, and as a motional picture production. Now, full bodied and richly-peopled, "Flowers For Algernon" is the daring novel of a starling human experiment! "A tale that is convincing, suspectful and touching..." -- "The New York Times."
"Fascinating, agonizing... Superb." -- "Birmingham News."
"This novel should be on your 'must read' list." -- "Palm Beach Post-Times."
"Strikingly original..." -- "Publishers' Weekly."
"Absorbing... Immensely original... Going to be read for a long time to come." -- "Library Journal."
