One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
2 journalers for this copy...
Personal copy of this classic. I read this probably 20 years ago, will revisit the tale again before releasing.
Cover blurb:
You've never met anyone like Randal Patrick McMurphy...
He's a boisterous, brawling, fun-loving rebel who swaggers into the ward of a mental hospital and takes over...
He's a lusty, profane, life-loving fighter who rallies the other patients around him by challenging the dictatorship of Big Nurse. He promotes gambling in the ward, smuggles in wine and women. At every turn, he openly defies her rule.
The contest starts as sport (with McMurphy taking bets on the outcome) but soon it develops into a grim struggle for the minds and hearts of the men, into an all-out war between two relentless opponents: Big Nurse, backed by the full power of authority... McMurphy, who has only his own indomitable will.

In an effort to reduce the numbers of books sitting on my shelves waiting to be read, I have been downloading audio books from my local library's website. I have listened to this story... just as good as I remembered it being! I will be setting this book free soon!
