Charlie Gordon has always wanted to be smart. At 32, with an IQ of 68, he works sweeping floors at Donner's Bakery and attends classes for adults with intellectual disabilities. When researchers select him for an experimental surgery that might triple his intelligence-a procedure previously successful only with a mouse named Algernon-Charlie jumps at the chance. His motivation runs deeper than simple curiosity. He wants friends who don't mock him behind his back. He wants to understand the world around him. Most of all, he wants to be "normal." The early progress reports Charlie writes reveal both his limitations and his humanity. His childlike eagerness shines through misspelled words: "I hope they use me becaus Miss Kinnian says mabye they can make me smart. I want to be smart." These reports become our window into Charlie's mind as it transforms from simplicity to brilliance and back again, creating one of literature's most intimate portraits of consciousness itself. What would it be like to suddenly understand everything you couldn't grasp before? To realize that people you thought were friends were actually laughing at you? Charlie's journey forces us to reconsider what intelligence really means-and whether being "smart" necessarily makes life better.
