A review by aureum
Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes

3.5

I love so much about this book but i hate that its written by a man. The weird sex aspects of a man who
is still internally harboring the "personality" of a child/teen
is gross. The way women are portrayed as stepping stones for a man to "discover himself" and then they are expected to continue their npc lives with no greater goals than help him. Reading this made me miss the highschool edited version that focused on the heart of what it means to be disabled in society.
