Today I read a story for homework, it was called "Flowers for Algernon". It's about a 37 years old mentally disabled guy named Charlie Gordon. He had a innocent and child like mind and tries so hard to get smarter everyday, until he went though an operation. Charlie got more intelligent and loses his innocence, just like how eve lost hers by eating the forbidden fruit when the world was first created. He lost his love, his friends, almost everything he had. The intelligence the operation gave to Charlie was not permanent, in the end, he was back to the way he was. Charlie moved to New York, because he didn't want people to feel sorry for him
