Methuen & Co, 1962. First UK Edition. 311 pp. Hardcover: NEAR FINE. Dust Wrapper: VERY GOOD. Tight, clean copy, free of marks or inscriptions; slight foxing on top text block. Seemingly less common uncensored state without 1962 by Ken Kesey blacked out on the copyright page. The unclipped wrapper has some foxing/spotting, with negligible loss at the head of the spine. Kesey was a major counter-cultural link between the Beat Generation of the 1950 s and the hippies of the 1960 s. One Flew Over the Cuckoo s Nest is the seminal novel that has left an indelible mark on the literature of our time. A great collectable book.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is a novel written by Ken Kesey, first published in 1962. The book is a powerful critique of the mental health system and a poignant study of institutional processes and the human mind.
