One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest

The Book List 1970 - 2020

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's nest by Ken Kesey, 1962.

I read first read this book in the summer of 1974 about a year before the movie came out. It was a very powerful book and the first time reading Kesey. I would read Sometimes a Great Notion in 1978.

I read this book again last month. It was just as good the second time. Maybe better.

This story would also be one of my favorite movies. The 1975 film of the novel starring Jack Nicholson. 

There's a lot to be said about that movie...  IMDb
