One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest by Ken Kesey

5.0

---

This book made me want to read and write more than any other I've read. It is equally hopeful and tragic, and the prose that Kesey crafts is absolutely astonishing. He can use imagery so masterfully, sometimes using very abstract phrases/images which are incredible. The characters are great and memorable and Kesey is great at writing how people interact in such a realistic way. Ultimately, I will never forget this book, and I know I will read it many more times in my life.
