The
Perks of Being a Wallflower
The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a
coming-to-age epistolary novel written by Stephen Chbosky who is American award
winning literacy optimism. This is a moving story about a boy named Charlie who
is entering his first year of high school as an outcast. Charlie deals with the
recent death of his best friend after he committed suicide and his always
consuming depression built up from memories in the past he can’t seem to put
together. This story is told through
letters Charlie writes to an anonymous character which he tells everything.
Charlie’s world is turned upside down when he meets two outgoing outsiders, Sam
and Patrick. Patrick is a wild, spontaneous teen who is struggling with being
gay and dating someone who isn’t willing to expose their relationship. Sam is
the beautiful, compassionate girl who Charlie almost instantly gained feelings
for. These two friends introduce Charlie to a whole new world.
