part 2 Nest

Now the book is getting better in part 2. In part two the characters start to produce more. We see the patients start to ignore the Nurse so they can get what they want. However most of them are still scared of her and her power to keep them there as long as she wants which sucks for them. The nurse does and says whatever she wants McMurphy because she sees the fear of her in him. This is due to the fact that he has such a strong effect on the other patients, but the Nurse has the final say in how long he stays. This is why all the others fear the nurse. They fear her power because all it takes is an order from her and she can make the patient’s life a living misery for as long as she wants. McMurphy continues to try to push the restrictions and see how far he can get. It will be exciting to see if the Nurse breaks down completely or if McMurphy's actions will collapse after time. He is going to take all he can before being stopped or stopping due to satisfaction. I wonder who will be the first to give in?????

Part 1 Cuckoo Nest

In Part One of One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Chief Bromden, the narrator, suffers from suspicion and has hallucinations. He has been in the mental hospital longer than anybody else in there. He does take medicine to help his illness. In the beginning of part one he tells about all the adventures that are happened in the mental hospital. The fog symbolizes the weakness of the patients in the mental hospital. Chief Bromden believes the he is weak when really he is very strong. Harding tells McMurphy that the Big Nurse is not helping them and she is treating them like they are young kids. The therapy sessions are not helping them they are just making things worse. McMurphy finally is able to show what is really going on.
