Thanks to everyone who voted in the poll. The
KR Book Club's book for November - untill January/ February will be 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' by Ken Kesey.
"Boisterous, ribald, and ultimately shattering, Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is the seminal novel of the 1960s that has left an indelible mark on the literature of our time. Here is the unforgettable story of a mental ward and its inhabitants, especially the tyrannical Big Nurse Ratched and Randle Patrick McMurphy, the brawling, fun-loving new inmate who resolves to oppose her. We see the struggle through the eyes of Chief Bromden, the seemingly mute half-Indian patient who witnesses and understands McMurphy's heroic attempt to do battle with the awesome powers that keep them all imprisoned."

The way we read the last book worked well, with people reading at their own pace and discussing ideas as they went along. Once we had all finished we spent about a month having a more rounded discussion and talking about other things to do with the book, such as the movie, critical essays and our own ideas. I hope the same thing will happen with this book so I hope lots of people take part, all are welcome. If you have any questions just post or you can PM me, ella luciana or zindy.
Happy reading!
