The quality of writing and the story here are superb. I loved this SO much. It was constantly challenging, equally as funny, and thus is ABSOLUTELY worth reading. With such strong characters, still-impactful stances on societal wrongdoings and failures, and so many fascinating creative choices, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is just as relevant now as when it released 60 years ago.
