One Flew Over the Cuckoo nest: Quote 10

“I want to look at one of the books, but I’m scared to. I’m scared to do anything. I feel like I’m floating in the dusty yellow air of the library, halfway to the bottom, halfway to the top.”

Here Bromden is showing the signs of the “fog" again, he’s never quite sure when he is actually walking around doing things. His reality is so distorted that he can’t tell the difference from when he is sleeping or not. His awful dreams have a role play in this and he often imagines things that aren't really happening.
