What's up with the controversy over Flowers for Algernon?

Everyone's all like "aah this guy has sex all through the book and yadda yadda yadda"


It's not true, people! Get it through your thick impenetrable skulls!


Any comments/questions/concerns on this?

What's up with the controversy over Flowers for Algernon?
It has been years since I read that book and I don't recall the main character as having sex throughout the book. I only remember that when he was a "normal" man he did have a relationship. I should read that book again...it was an excellent book from what I recall. If there is sex in the book at all there will always be people who simply focus on that and ignore the rest of the message and story of the book.
Reply:Charlie does not have sex in the book. However in the movie "Charly" based off the book, he does it with his teacher.
Reply:he doesn't do it in the book, only in the movie.
