Flowers for Algernon is about a man named Charlie Gordon who suffers from mental retardation.
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?

Because Charlie was a mentally challenged adult, many people thought poorly of him. In the book, Charlie was said to be a klutz. When someone did a klutzy thing, another person would say that they "pulled a Charlie Gordon" because they acted like Charlie. Sad, but true. Hope this helped
