Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes

Synopsis:
Charlie Gordon is about to embark upon an unprecedented journey. Born with an unusually low IQ, he has been chosen as the perfect subject for an experimental surgery that researchers hope will increase his intelligence – a procedure that has already been highly successful when tested on a lab mouse named Algernon.

As the treatment takes effect, Charlie's intelligence expands until it surpasses that of the doctors who engineered his metamorphosis. The experiment appears to be a scientific breakthrough of paramount importance, until Algernon suddenly deteriorates. Will the same happen to Charlie?

Event Information:
In some situations with big groups it may be necessary for the organiser to request a deposit for the cafe booking. This will be communicated in the week before the meeting.
Participants are expected to read the whole book or at least most of it, so that we can have a good discussion.
I will also PM all registered attendees through the Meetup chat function to confirm their attendance closer to date, and if you do not respond, and/or if you have a history of late cancellations/no-shows, I reserve the right to move you off the confirmed list to let a waitlisted person in.
If you require accommodations for disabilities, let me know when you RSVP.
