Today, Mr Teo also told us to reach a short story with the title of Flowers for Algernon(FFA). The story was written by Daniel Keyes in 1959. The story is about a mentally retarded person named Charlie Gordon.He faced many set backs just like how many mentally retarted people are facing now. He is often teased by his co-workers. The story also has a very realistic settings, which i would talk about in the next post. Finally, the story does not have a perfect ending, thus allowing readers to think for ourselves and to reflect upon our own actions and how we may have treated mentally retarded people.
