One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

So far, I have really enjoyed Kesey's novel. His style of writing is very realistic and vivid, especially in the Chief's schizophrenic narration, which gives the book a unique touch. From what I have read so far, I do not think that Kesey's novel promotes misogyny, but I do find the characterizations of the black boys to be a bit outrageous. He accurately portrays the forces of conformity through the Combine and the Big Nurse's insidiously repressive nature.
