As one of my favorite works, I can’t believe I missed the news that Daniel Keyes, the author of Flowers for Algernon, had passed away.
Daniel Keyes (August 9, 1927 – June 15, 2014) was an American author best known for his Hugo award-winning short story and Nebula award-winning novel Flowers for Algernon. Keyes was given the Author Emeritus honor by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America in 2000.
