　　查理是個害羞而內斂的高一學生，擁有超越他年紀的聰明，總是默默觀察身邊的家人和朋友，他可以說是一個「壁花男孩」。從一封封查理寫給不知名的「親愛的朋友」的信中，我們越來越認識查理。查理遇到了許多青少年在這個年紀會遇到的挫折，包含交友、迷戀、家庭壓力、感情、性探索、毒品，同時他還必須從好友的自殺、姑姑的意外死亡中調適過來。
　　還好此時他遇到了一個開明的導師和兩個高三的好朋友珊和派屈克，他們給予查理許多的幫助和友情。讀者就像書中的「親愛的朋友」一樣，分享了最真實、最坦承、如日記般的親切的真實筆記……閱讀本書就像重回青少年的時期，重溫那些徬徨、無助和荒唐，也是給青少年學子的最佳課外讀物！
★本書中譯版《壁花男孩》由高寶出版。
Read the cult-favorite coming of age story that takes a sometimes heartbreaking, often hysterical, and always honest look at high school in all its glory. Also a major motion picture starring Logan Lerman and Emma Watson, The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a funny, touching, and haunting modern classic.
The critically acclaimed debut novel from Stephen Chbosky, Perks follows observant "wallflower" Charlie as he charts a course through the strange world between adolescence and adulthood. First dates, family drama, and new friends. Sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Devastating loss, young love, and life on the fringes. Caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it, Charlie must learn to navigate those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.
A #1 New York Times best seller for more than a year, an American Library Association Best Book for Young Adults (2000) and Best Book for Reluctant Readers (2000), and with millions of copies in print, this novel for teen readers (or "wallflowers" of more-advanced age) will make you laugh, cry, and perhaps feel nostalgic for those moments when you, too, tiptoed onto the dance floor of life.
