Catch 22 by Joseph Heller (1955)

My Rating: 5/5
It just makes me badly insane that I couldn't make out theory or two how did Hungry Joe's wraith is taken away from his body while his mortal enemy solemnly perched on his cratered face. I'd like to hunt justice for Hungry Joe's until Huple's cat is proven guilty for its egregious, feline mischief.

What else more to say on your crooked, bawdy, grotesque, and marvelous story, Heller, oscillating from a place to another and then back again into its muddied route, dragged me to downright confusion. However the insatiable need of knowing the mishaps of our patriotic hero championed me to finish line. Viola! I'm done with it and be back when I felt awful and needed somebody to crack me up and banged up my head for real. It is surreal. It is madness. I want to strangle Yossarian for making me feel that I am one of them. CRAZY than ever.

Perhaps, I might providing you a little exploration beyond this so rare expidition that would lead through own opinion rather a proper review which I haven't done yet over the course on this blog. Yossarian asked me to look further on Nately's whore younger sister, whose virgin-self probably beaten on the street, famished and could have died in cold weather same situation as Raskolnikov dreamed about the battered mare on the street, and had died from owner's tyranny. Yossarian nudged me on my ribs which goad me on dreaming about a live fish on my hand--- imagined that slimy, bloody fish, wriggled on thy palm. It totally drives me nuts, by the way. He wants me to implore Doc Daneeka, too, and pray tell Major Major Major to spare him from flying more missions proliferating by their colonel's own command. But Yossarian is a wise captain who created cunning moves and delayed missions in a nick of time without aid from anyone else; forget about his friends beaten on ceaseless war and be finally home--- but soon he had come to realise that there was a catch. Catch-22.

This book was sumptuous and hilariously crazy. It has a good quality of writing and characters were intricately fabricated by author himself that compelled readers to explore more things about each of them. The satirical talent and passions of Heller in writing a story was impressive. I don't know exactly but there's a bewitching voice from his words that will help us conjured all of his characters out of his messy causeway and yet you will enjoy it as I did. Absolutely impressive. What the hell! I am repeating words again. What else more to say?

Perfect!
