Charlie Gordon, with an IQ of 68, is a floor cleaner and the noble subject of everyone's jokes - until an experiment in enhancing human intelligence turns him into a genius. However, Algernon, the mouse that had previously undergone a successful experimental transformation, begins to fade and die, and Charlie must face the possibility that his salvation was only temporary.
Awarded the Hugo Award for Best Short Story in 1960, and then expanded into a novella nominated for a Hugo, "Flowers for Algernon" brought Daniel Keyes the title of SFWA Author Emeritus in 2000 for his contribution to speculative literature.
