Boisterous ribald and ultimately shattering Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is
the seminal novel of the 1960s that has left an indelible mark on the literature of our time.
Here is the unforgettable story of a mental ward and its inhabitants especially the tyrannical
Big Nurse Ratched and Randle Patrick McMurphy the brawling fun-loving new inmate who resolves
to oppose her. We see the struggle through the eyes of Chief Bromden the seemingly mute
half-Indian patient who witnesses and understands McMurphy's heroic attempt to do battle with
the awesome powers that keep them all imprisoned.
