Flowers for Algernon (Review)

A retard (please don't be offended this is the term used in this 50's novel) wants to be smart. He wanted to read so bad he found a school that will take him. Someone tells him the collage wants to pick someone to try to make smart. He really wants it to be him, he's always wanted to be smart.

This novel is absolutely amazing. The first I heard of this novel is from the show friends when Chandler and Joey get the big apartment. Chandler asked Joey if he ever read Flowers for Algernon.

Anyway this novel is done in first person as daily journal entrees. This author does an amazing job starting with a simple mind and gradually learning more and more. Will the experiment work? Read to find out!

Highly recommended 5/5 Stars.
