具体描述

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.

作者简介

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.

Joseph Heller最好的作品有三部，按出版顺序： 1. Catch-22 (第二十二条军规) 2. Something Happened (出事了) 3. God Knows （上帝知道） 这三部都有中文译本，而且豆瓣中都有。三部书都是黑色幽默，风格一致，分别拿战争、亲情和宗教三个及其严肃的话题开涮，这也是他的成功...  

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...  

约瑟夫.海勒是上世纪七八十年代的美国作家，他开创了“黑色幽默”这一现代主义文学流派（没错，就是周董唱的那个黑色幽默），该流派的文本特点是“从残忍中寻求乐趣”，把病态、荒诞、丑恶、冷酷、阴暗统统用幽默来表现、来对待。听上去好像挺玄乎，其实这种态度和...
