Flowers for Algernon

"Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes is an inspirational boosting science fiction novel about a middle aged man and his life lifelong quest to be normal after society cruelly excludes him because of the intellectual disability he was sadly born with. It is then that his prayers are answered and is life takes a "U" turn when he volunteers for an experimental procedure that will turn him into what society accepts as normal by tripling …

…that has enthralled both people who are indifferent to science fiction and avid fans of the genre. He also includes symbols in the story, these symbols include Charlie and Algernon who symbolise innocence and thriving like no other character in the novel. Keyes also includes a hidden moral statement which is from my point of view: "If you really try hard to become something/someone you will overcome all obstacles that stand I your way."
