One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (Part II)

In part 2 of this book for my blogg I wanted to talk and disscuss how the nurse Ratched reacted in the glassed in Nurses' Station after her outburst and she’s being watched. The patients all are looking at her they think something’s up with her now and and she can’t escape it. Ratched trys to keep her composure by trying not to be nervous . Ratched appears to me to be very vindicative and sneaky ecspeally knowing that she has the power to rule over things or people such as Bromden. She knows she has the power to keep him there as long as she wants and sheuses it to her advantage. Ratched knows she can send anyone she wants for electroshock therapy. Ratched thinks that she has regained control but she really hasn’t .The staff meeting illustrates Nurse Ratched's power in the hospital. And the glass, which is kept so spotless and that’s always being clean represents the control Nurse Ratched has over the patients. But by McMurphy breaking the glass, he reminds the other patients that her power over them is breakable. This shows that the nurse is very dishonest i think.
