Die Glasglocke
Electroconvulsive therapy has been depicted in fiction, including fictional works partly based on true experiences. These include Sylvia Plath's autobiographical novel, "The Bell Jar", Ken Loach's film Family Life, and Ken Kesey's novel "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"; Kesey's novel is a direct product of his time working the graveyard shift as an orderly at a mental health facility in Menlo Park, California.
