Daniel Keyes - paperback

Charlie Gordon is about to embark upon an unprecedented journey. Born with an unusually low IQ, he has been chosen as the perfect subject for an experimental surgery that researchers hope will increase his intelligence-a procedure that has already been highly successful when tested on a lab mouse named Algernon.
As the treatment takes effect, Charlie's intelligence expands until it surpasses that of the doctors who engineered his metamorphosis. The experiment appears to be a scientific breakthrough of paramount importance, until Algernon suddenly deteriorates. Will the same happen to Charlie?

Charlie Gordon está a punto de embarcarse en un viaje sin precedentes. Nacido con un coeficiente intelectual inusualmente bajo, ha sido elegido como el sujeto perfecto para una cirugía experimental que los investigadores esperan aumente su inteligencia, un procedimiento que ya ha tenido mucho éxito cuando se probó en un ratón de laboratorio llamado Algernon.

A medida que el tratamiento surte efecto, la inteligencia de Charlie se expande hasta superar la de los médicos que diseñaron su metamorfosis. El experimento parece ser un avance científico de suma importancia, hasta que Algernon se deteriora repentinamente. ¿Le pasará lo mismo a Charlie?
