Just when one thinks that she/he has it all figured out, there is an uncanny feeling of an impending explosion about to dislodge your steadily rested feet from the ground. Bum. Let me ramble and relieve myself of heavy thoughts. Shoot.
"Being Mad is not easy", so goes the tag line of " One Flew Over Cuckoo's Nest". I just randomly picked this book for reading tonight and loved it absolutely. I believe I have the reading deficit disorder, I tend to switch from one book to another book too often. I am reading quite a lot of books at the same time. Anyways , going back to the book, The setting is an institution for insane; And , the story is told in first person by one of the patients who is believed to be totally insane, deaf and dumb. It starts with how strictly the rules are imposed by authority on these "mental" patients just for the sake of it. And, how it curbs down the independent spirit. I am yet to read the later part. So, I will bask in the happiness of a glorious ending of a rebellious against the authority in a later post. The story I believe is going to end with a rhetoric, are so called "demented " people locked up in cellars in mental institutions insane than the ones outside it. hmpf.
