Name(s):
DIRECTIONS: Chapters 1-4 establish the characters and setting of the novel. While the novel may raise a lot of questions/confusions (more on that below), we can start to establish the following characters who have been mentioned so far. Go back and find references/quotes and add to the table below. Include “definitions” for Acutes and Chronics.
There is no need for analysis here. You are pulling evidence and clarifying characters and the setting. Some of this may repeat from the Chapters 2-4 questions. DUE: Thursday 3.19 by midnight.
You may work with a group, but:
* Groups cannot be more than 4 people; please put group names clearly @ top
* The document must be shared with me so that I can edit, and can see editing history;
* There must be an equitable distribution of work (i.e. each member of the group should contribute about the same amount to the document)
The new Admission, R.P. McMurphy:

Acutes:
The acutes are the patients in the mental institution who are deemed as “curable”

Vs. Chronics: The Chronics are those patients in the mental institution who are deemed as “incurable” due to the persistence of their illnesses at a regular basis.
Walkers: is a sub-classification of Chronics, who can walk
Wheelers: is another sub-classification of Chronics who are usually bound in their wheel-chairs. In other words, they are paraplegic
Vegetables: are those who seems to have lost all their capability to interact or move. They are either quadriplegic or are completely incapable of reasoning

Billy Bibbit:
“He’s saying this directly to Billy Bibbit. He leans down and glares so hard at Billy that Billy feels compelled to stutter out that he isn’t the buh-buh-buh-bull goose loony yet, though he’s next in luh-luh-line for the job.”

Ruckly:
“Ruckly is another Chronic came in a few years back as an Acute, but him they overloaded in a different way: they made a mistake in one of their head installations. He was being a holy nuisance all over the place, kicking the black boys and biting the student nurses on the legs, so they took him away to be fixed. They strapped him to that table, and the last anybody saw of him for a while was just before they shut the door on him; he winked, just before the door closed, and told the black boys as they backed away from him, “You’ll pay for this, you damn tarbabies.””

Harding:
“Harding is a flat, nervous man with a face that sometimes makes you think you seen him in the movies, like it’s a face too pretty to just be a guy on the street. He’s got wide, thin shoulders and he curves them in around his chest when he’s trying to hide inside himself. He’s got hands so long and white and dainty I think they carved each other out of soap, and sometimes they get loose and glide around in front of him free as two white birds until he notices them and traps them between his knees; it bothers him that he’s got pretty hands.”

Ellis:
“Ellis [and Ruckly] are the youngest Chronics”

Cheswick:
“The redheaded man sticks his hand out for Cheswick to shake”
