Summary

Immortalized by Tom Wolfe in his novel THE ELECTRIC KOOL-AID ACID TEST, Ken Kesey navigates the twisted halls of mental health in ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST. Filled with humor and poignant insight into the human condition, NEST delivers an indictment of the mental health system while raising those it's meant to serve to the height of heroes. Kesey's a bold, lion-hearted writer who doesn't shy away from the difficult issues of institutionalized prejudice, abuse and racism, rampant - for the times - in America's mental health wards.
