A cult novel that is one of the 100 most read by The Times. Released in the sixties, at a bright time of new generation protest against greed, depersonalization, war and violence. Liberalism against traditionalism, personality against foundations. The novel shocks with depth, excites, makes you think about life, about justice, about the system and its infallibility, about the limits of madness and normality, about freedom, about will, about choice.

A must read. And also watch the movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" with Jack Nicholson in the title role. The novel has also been the subject of many plays in various countries, including Russia.

Over the Cuckoo's Nest is a crude and devastatingly honest depiction of the boundaries between sanity and insanity.

« If anyone wants to feel the pulse of our times, let Kesey read. And if everything goes well and the order of things does not change, it will be read in the next century,” the Los Angeles Times wrote.

Indeed, even today the book continues to live and does not lose its crazy popularity.
