Lit Group Question

Question (1)

In the novel Flowers For Algernon written by: Daniel Keyes, the plot is located in a variety of places, all within New York City. The majority of the story is set at Charly Gordan's apartment, where he writes his daily progress reports. The novel is also set at the bakery in which Charly works, and lastly at a night school Charly attends for adults suffering retardation. From what I have read so far in this story, it seems to me that it takes place in either the late 1900's or early twenty first century. While the story is written in a series of misspelled progress reports, setting is not easy to identify at the start of the story, but the way the story is written is very real and intriguing. I am exited to find out what happens next!
