Set in the early 1990s, the novel follows Charlie through his freshman year of high school in a Pittsburgh suburb. Intelligent beyond his years, he is an unconventional thinker; as the story begins, the reader learns that Charlie is also shy and unpopular. Chbosky took five years to develop and publish The Perks of Being a Wallflower, creating the characters and other aspects of the story from his own memories. Plot[edit] The story begins with a quiet, sensitive, 15-year-old boy named Charlie writing letters about his life to an unknown recipient. His English teacher Bill notices Charlie's passion for reading and writing, and assigns him extracurricular books and reports. See also[edit]
