Thoughts on "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"
So far "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" seems like a very interesting book. What I find interesting is that it's told through the mind of a schizophrenic. The thoughts that go through people's heads while they have this condition are things that most people couldn't even imagine. In order to make Bromden's schizophrenia seem more realistic the author was under the mind altering drug LSD while writing the book. A question I have is: will Chief Bromden ever leave the ward, or will he never be cured?

I think that this is a very interesting book. The fact that this was written by a person on LSD just provides for a great experience in the book. I wonder what weird things are to come in the book
ReplyDeleteI also wonder what is to come between the nurse and chief bromden and what develops between them and how it effects the story
ReplyDeleteI personally think that Chief Bromden will escape the ward because no one knows that Chief is actually smarter than the characters think he is and he's been in that ward more than the other characters in the novel so I would think he would know the wared top to bottom if he's been there that long.
