One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest - Ken Kessey


This book was incredible. Very few books can recat such varried emotions in the span of a few pages, and I think that classifies this as a classic. Within the last few pages, I was honestly holding back laughter one moment, and holding back tears the next. You feel for the characters much more than in the movie, so while it does have the same outcome, it is much more powerful in this medium. Being from the semi-sane point of view of Chief Bromden also added a unique feel to the book that the movie lacked. Great book, highly recomended.
