CATCH-22 - JOSEPH HELLER GEBUNDEN

A beautiful hardback edition of one of the most subversive anti-war novels ever written -
reading Catch-22 is a rite of passage. Set in the closing months of World War II  this is the
story of a bombardier named Yossarian who is frantic and furious because thousands of people he
has never met are trying to kill him. His real problem is not the enemy - it is his own army
which keeps increasing the number of missions the men must fly to complete their service. If
Yossarian makes any attempts to excuse himself from the perilous missions then he is caught in
Catch-22: if he flies he is crazy  and doesn't have to  but if he doesn't want to he must be
sane and has to. That's some catch... 'The greatest satirical work in the English language'
Observer'Wildly original  brutally gruesome  a dazzling performance...it will not be forgotten'
New York Times VINTAGE QUARTERBOUND CLASSICS: Bound to be beautiful
