A cult novel, ranked among the 100 most-read books by Times. It was published in the 1960s, a vibrant time of protest by a new generation against greed, depersonalization, war, and violence. Liberalism versus traditionalism, the individual versus the established order. The novel is astoundingly profound, moving, and makes you think about life, justice, the system and its infallibility, the boundaries of madness and sanity, freedom, will, and choice.
A must read. Also, watch the film "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," starring Jack Nicholson. Numerous plays based on the novel have also been staged in various countries, including Russia. "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" is a raw and devastatingly honest depiction of the boundaries between sanity and madness. "If anyone wants to feel the pulse of our times, let them read Kesey."

Indeed, the book lives on today and hasn't lost its incredible popularity. The new translation was done by the young, talented translator Dmitry Shepelev.
