Book 2, Review 3

 My book One Flew over a Cuckoo’s nest would best be classified as Historical-Realistic-Drama Fiction. I choose this genre classification because it takes place not in modern times but in the late 1950s. The author kept the story historically accurate in the way the people were treated in the mental intuition. I thought the most accurate description would be realistic fiction because nothing happened that involved and superpowers or magic. In this story every event that took place could have happened, every character seemed like they could have existed at one point. All the patients and all the nurses could exist in reality. None of the events were so amazing, extreme that they couldn’t occur in reality. The main events in this book are introduction of McMurphy, the chief reveling to McMurphy he can speak, breaking into the pharmacy to smuggle two bottles of liquor, Billy killing himself all these events have a possibility of occurring in real life. I can’t really see a way this book doesn’t fit the realistic fiction genre because the characters don’t have any magic skills, and all the technology included in the book has already been invented there is nothing to stretch the imagination beyond reality.
