Power and Conflict in the nest?? -One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest

Power and Conflict in the nest?? -One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest by Ken Kesey.(5 pages). On one level this book is about society’s dislike for, and eventual destruction of the unrepentant non-conformer. But on another level it is exactly what the story line portrays  a brilliant look at the abuse, oppression and even murderous nature of the modern mental-health?? system. Action plays out through the conflicts of McMurphy and Nurse Ratched.
