i'll leave you with this for those who are interested. i think it's very good. One Flew Over the Cuckoo.odt

Kesey considered it a much harder read than cuckoo but no reason not to read it. A big book and very worthwhile. Faulknerkan in its dealings with time amd perspective as he was in his experienes with LSD. With lee remick and Henry Fonda
