In this progress report he talks about how he was scared to go under while they were operating on him. Can he overload on too much information, that he actually becomes retarded again? Like he learns too much too quickly. I wonder how long its going to take him to become intelligent. It starts to show you that he is learning and how the surgery is actually working. He crosses out “progris” and puts in “progress”. “Progress Report 7 March 11” (Keyes, page 10) Charlie doesn’t notice but he starts to edit himself by spelling things correctly. There isn’t that much to say about these ones I am excited to read the rest of the book I feel that I will really enjoy it. Especially this one because a bunch of grammatical errors and spelling errors were in them which made it hard to read.
The first few pages are the most interesting always to me because you learn the most and start off your book. I think when he said he was looking for the pictures in the black glob he thought like literally in the black glob. But Charlie couldn’t figure out figure it out. Also in “progris riport 2 martch 4” (Keyes, 1) he takes a raw shock test which is when you look at the black globs on the white cards and imagine what they all look like. Also it is really short, hopefully all of them aren’t that short. I wonder how the procedure will end up? If it will actually work or if it does, like stick. The grammar is all wrong, but it makes sense enough to tell us that the main character is Charlie Gordon, he’s 32 years old, works at a bakery, and his birthday is next “munth”. “progris riport 1 martch 3” (Keyes, 1) The first progress report is all spelt wrong and isn’t fluent. The first word in this book even is spelt wrong. I also like realistic fiction books a lot. Right off the back I am in love with this book because it’s different and makes it more interesting.
Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes has a very different writing style.
