Catch-22
Joseph Heller • 1961
Devastation Rating
war literary fiction philosophical political
Our Take
The funniest book about death ever written, and therefore the most honest. Heller makes the absurdity of war so total that laughter becomes the only sane response — then pulls the rug and shows you what the laughter was covering. Snowden's secret is the most devastating revelation in American war literature.
