One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest TEACHING UNIT One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest Notes The overall theme of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest is that of a man’s right to be an individual versus society’s need to make him conform. This theme is reflective of the social climate of the 1960’s. Some of the language and content in this novel may be offensive to minorities and women. It is important to remind the students that in 1962, when this story was written, the civil rights movement and the women’s movement were in their infancy. Other themes also are in evidence throughout the novel: what is sanity, how does authority cripple people, is the natural man better off free, and can the simple force of one’s personality overcome the repression of society. While the story is rooted in the ideals and cultures of the 1960’s, many of the concerns are as relevant today as they were then.
