WARNING: MAJOR SPOILER ALERT
It should be obvious, but it a spoiler alert is necessary.
What struck me the most about Flowers for Algernon is the fact that everyone else was completely in denial about the ending. We all knew it was coming. Algernon was clearly going to die; with "Flowers for Algernon" as the title, what else could possibly happen? Algernon dies. Obviously. And everything that happens to Algernon happens to Charlie. I think - no, I know Charlie is a dead man. Dead. The question is, what would have happened if he hadn't had the mental decline?
