In the novel Flowers For Algernon, there are many important symbols to look for. The fallowing two images are symbols that i thought were important for the section I read of this story.
This first Image is very important. Algernon (mouse) plays a huge role in this novel. Algernon is a mouse being used for an experiment. He endured the same surgery as Charly. This was an experiment to see if Algernon would gain knowledge as well as if Charly would. While they both are going through this experiment, Charly starts to see changes in Algernon that are also going on inside him. Even though Algernon is only a mouse he plays a part of a companion in his story.
The Image of the bakery in the upper left corner is also a very important place in this book. The bakery in which Charly works gives him a since of home, where people care about him and look after him. Charly starts to realize as he becomes more and more intelligent, his fellow workers in the bakery don't treat him the same. Charly begins to notice problems in the bakery, and has trouble knowing what to do. Charly gets fired from the bakery after an incident that happened, but the bakery will always be a part of his life because that was his only real family to fall back on.
Hey Colton. This is responding to the question you left me.The main character,Matt, has a lot of interests. His biggest interest is playing music. He knows how to play piano and guitar, but is best at piano. Matt is also an explorer. He lives in a giant strip of land between Mexico and America called Opium, and likes to go to a little oasis he found with his bodyguard, Tam Lin.
