The Perks of Being a Wallflower

By Stephen Chbosky, 1999

"And in that moment, I swear we were infinite."

A coming-of-age tale, with comedy, romance and suitably embarrasing teenage fumblings with love and sex, and drugs and alcohol.

"We accept the love we think we deserve."

The problems encountered by teens on their journey through the trials and tribulations of school days - insecurity, bullying, unrequited love; can mirror challenges that people face throughout life. With that, The Perks of Being a Wallflower can reach out across age boundaries and appeal to all.
