Flores pra Algernon é uma história que eu não tenho como descrever com outras palavras além de forte e extremamente sensível. O livro aborda diversos questionamento profundos como ética científica, como a sociedade trata pessoas marginalizadas, etc de uma forma super interessante. Nos momentos iniciais temos toda a mudança da escrita, a evolução da comunicação do personagem e acompanhamos a ascensão e queda de um Charlie produto da ciência, os questionamentos que surgem com seu aprendizado e a gradual mudança de percepção que ele tem a partir de si mesmo conforme passa a adquirir mais conhecimento e compreender seu passado e como as pessoas o tratam.
Apesar de um pouco densa em algumas partes, a narrativa é filosófica e interessante.
