First edition, hardcover, light fading to spine, one inch diameter waterspot to top of rear board, few stray small spots and light soiling to covers, small brown stain to bottom edges of pages 131-138, otherwise a VG+ copy in a supplied first state dustjacket with the Kerouac blurb and the unrevised text, which is price-clipped, has a slight fade to the spine and right edge of the front panel, a couple of closed tears, and a green tinted dampstain which is a one inch spot to the top of the rear panel with a thin trailing line along the top edge 99% of which is only visible internally, the only external trace being a small spot at the top corner of the rear fold, but which is otherwise a bright and complete VG+ example of the scarce dustjacket.

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.
