In the book Flowers for Algeron there is a power struggle between the doctors and the experiment or as we call them algernon and charly. Charly in this book seems like he gets a tast of power when he gets his temperary intellegance. He finaly is on top and is as smart and or smarter then most of the doctors that gave him his intellagence. But in the book he doesn’t allways have power or when he does its only minimum. Threw out charlies hole life he has allways been under the power of others because of his mental retardation. When he was a kid his mother was control of him and treated him so bad threatening him punishing him for stuff he cant help. Then when he went to the warren home he allways had someone looking after him. Even the one thing he loved to do which was work at the bakery he was still didn’t have power. He was still just a bus boy doing basic things around the shop. A person that allways had power in the book but lost it at the end was was charly mom. She over powered her son charly and she wore the pants in the family. But karma came back at her because she lost her mind with demensia when charly went to see her. This in my eyes was kinda like peotic justice that charlies mom treated charlie so horribaly and had his sister an gave up on him because he was retarted but in the end she became mentaly handycaped.
