Цветы для Элджернона

"Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes is included in the required reading program in American schools. Thirty-three-year-old Charlie Gordon is mentally disabled. However, he has a job, friends, and an overwhelming desire to learn. He agrees to participate in a... dangerous scientific experiment in the hope of becoming smart... Changes in Charlie Gordon happen before our eyes, here and now. The first reports are full of errors, but gradually they disappear. This fantastic story has a remarkable psychological strength and makes one reflect on universal moral questions: do we have the right to experiment on one another, what results can this lead to, and what price are we willing to pay to become the "smartest". And alone? To the questions raised by M. Bulgakov in "Heart of a Dog" and J. London in "Martin Eden", Daniel Keyes provides his unequivocal answer. The book is released in a new translation by Sergey Task.
