Amazing writing that weaves a story that at time seems far-fetched until we realize that it is entirely possible. At the same time the story integrates important lessons in human behavior and mental illness. Highly recommended.

3.5 Drags throughout the whole novel but picks up towards the end for an amazing climax.

A great read from beginning to end. I watched the movie several years back so I knew the broad strokes of the story but there are significant differences, mainly the narrator, that I didn't anticipate. The movie is a great, and the book is better in the sense that it adds emotional depth and hooks into you harder. Well worth your time.

Beyond Interesting! Believable conversations among 'insane' and mentally challenged patients.📔

The “I’m Tired” passage is the best part of any book that I have ever read. I can’t even describe it

This interesting novel explores the power abuse has on individuals. While it is an important book for people to read, children will be traumatizing(due to extreme and vulgar language, explicit sexual activity, and graphic abuse)

This books is not only a page-turner, fantastically written but it has enough rich symbolism and subtext to keep you thinking long after you close it. A poignant look at society's hang ups and individuality stifling praxis, One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest speaks to every member of the counterculture for which it was intended and provides a sobering look at the true nature of asylums. Ratched is as actually manipulative and done erring as she thinks McMurphy is, and the toe create a chemistry and rivalry like none I've ever seen in modern literature. Not to mention RP McMurphy is the only literary character who's personae transitions from page to screen completely flawlessly. Bromden's visions also evoke a kind of analytical reaction and immersive imagery that must be read a few times to fully be appreciated.

Chief o.e

I have always wanted to read this book, don't know what took me so long to do it! Completely captivating from page 1. True classic.

Classic book. I would suggest reading the book before watching the movie. The book has all the intensity that you only catch glimpses of in the movie.
