Charlie Gordon is about to embark upon an unprecendented journey. Born with an unusually low IQ, he has been chosen als 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 called 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?

8 out of 10

About the first third of the book appealed very much to me. The rest is a bit weaker but nevertheless absolutely worth reading.

The moral of the story: It's not just the I.Q. that matters. Aha, listen to this! ;-)

Algernon wurde im Kreml verschmäht. Das wird doch bei einem Gläschen Wasauchimmer hier nicht passieren, gelle?

Passt nicht zu meiner Eskapismus-Challenge, aber ich kann ja nicht Nein-sagen.
