A very enthralling book! I enjoyed the memorable characters, especially McMurphy.I like how the book is narrated by Chief Bromden; he definitely shed a lot of light on the ways of the mental ward's staff.

One Flew es acerca de un hospital psiquiátrico y de como pasan los días. La primera parte del libro es muy tediosa, porque describe...
“Because he knows you have to laugh at the things that hurt you just to keep yourself in balance, just to keep the world from running you plumb crazy. He knows there's a painful side; he knows my thumb smarts and his girl friend has a bruised breast and the doctor is losing his glasses, but he won't...
