Book Club Discussion: Flowers for Algernon

We will be in one of the meeting rooms, I will post which room once I get there or you can ask at the front desk.

July Book Club Discussion:

# Flowers for Algernon - Daniel Keyes

[Random.org](http://random.org/) - selected #182 (of 421)
Suggested by Stephanie

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?

Please post your suggestions for future discussions. You can also send me a private message.

Selections will be from books published Jul 2024 or earlier.
