Joseph Heller (May 1, 1923 – December 12, 1999) was an American satirical novelist, short story writer and playwright. He wrote the influential novel Catch-22 about American servicemen during World War II. The title of this work entered the English lexicon to refer to absurd, no-win choices, particularly in situations in which the desired outcome of the choice is an impossibility, and regardless of choice, the same negative outcome is a certainty. Heller is widely regarded as one of the best post-World War II satirists. Although he is remembered primarily for Catch-22, his other works center on the lives of various members of the middle class and remain exemplars of modern satire.
Catch-22 is a satirical, historical novel by the American author Joseph Heller, first published in 1961. The novel, set during the later stages of World War II from 1944 onwards, is frequently cited as one of the great literary works of the twentieth century.[2] It has a distinctive non-chronological style where events are described from different characters' points of view and out of sequence so that the time line develops along with the plot.
The novel follows Yossarian, a U.S. Army Air Forces B-25 bombardier, and a number of other characters. Most events occur while the airmen of the fictional 256th squadron are based on the island of Pianosa, in the Mediterranean Sea west of Italy.

评分在看这本书之前,我就听说过它大名鼎鼎的“第二十二条军规”理论——根据第二十二条军规,只有疯子才能获准免于飞行,但必须由本人提出申请,但你一旦提出申请,恰好证明了你是一个正常人,还是在劫难逃。第二十二条军规还规定,飞行员飞满25架次就能回国,但它又说,你必须绝...
评分读过两遍了,至今仍在黑色幽默下悲伤。看这本书想笑不难,但内心的酸楚却总油然而生。 从这里能用另一种眼光看待战争,其实,不要把战争想的多么高尚,它只不过是高层人物的发泄而已,对于普通人有的只是受苦和灾难,或者你可以成为其中的优秀人物,你也从战争中寻找乐趣,就像...
