| Discussion: Ken Kesey This bloke was great. One Flew over the Cookoos Nest is one of my fav books. If you haven't read it yet I urge you to. You will never forget it. >>By Gazza Yeah this was a pretty good book..i agree. >>By Martha "Cuckoo's Nest" is a thouroughly gripping and mouth watering tome. I couldn't put it down, and it gets better every time i read it! >>By Bazzabongo its a feeling of actuality and reality of the truth people go through to stick it out for the sake of there lives. Great book >>By ryan selestay I'm trying to find the name of the bus >>By blues The name of the bus was "further". It turned to a rusting heap out in Eugene. Art never lasts. >>By obelus "Furthur", I think... >>By Seward3 The futhur bus "original" is going to be restored very soon kens son zane has made a great effort to ensure the his fathers legacy will not be forgotten http://www.key-z.com they have even published kens jail diary >>By AlterREality4U&ME I thought it was interesting that in the book the main character as it were was 'The Chief' but in the film the main focus was 'R P McMurphey'. I think that it would of been easier for the viewer to understand Kesey's general motivation for writing the book if there had been more emphasis on the chiefs thoughts and feelings. I believe that Kesey actually went to work in a Mental Insitution to do research for the book. Either that or he just fancied it, I wonder how many people would do that nowadays. >>By wolvesbane Movie is so different stuff...book and movie...i like both! >>By Kurppa I hope you will all give "Sometimes A Great Notion," his second novel, a try. It is an amazing book. >>By atombee I agree....Sometimes a Great Notion is overshadowed by Cuckoo's Nest, but it's also a great read. More conventional in a way, but a good, solid read. The kind of book that makes you wistful when it's done because you'll miss the characters so much. >>By limpet Apparently, when asked what he thought of the film version of "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest", his reply was, "How would you feel if your 13yr old daughter was raped!!" >>By nonyeb You are not logged in.
