Flowers for Algernon
Imagine that Charlie’s surgery was successful – now anyone can have an improved intelligence. As a reporter, write an article that reports on the opportunity. Write about the operation, the advantages, disadvantages, the possibilities for people, etc.
Include comments from Dr. Strauss, Professor Nemur, Miss Kinnian and Charlie. The article needs to be set out accurately and appropriate for purpose, context and audience. Think about images, columns, titles, structure, style and language choices.
