Synopsis of Catch-22 by Joseph Heller

Set in Italy during World War II, Catch-22 by Joseph Heller tells the story of the incomparable, malingering bombardier, Yossarian. A hero who is furious because thousands of people he has never met are trying to kill him. But 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 attempt to excuse himself from the perilous missions he is assigned, he runs right up against the bureaucratic rule known as Catch-22. This rule specifies that a concern for one’s own safety in the face of dangers that are real and immediate is the process of a rational mind. If he is crazy, he can be grounded. All he has to do is ask; and as soon as he asks, he is no longer crazy and has to fly more missions.

Catch-22 by Joseph Heller is a microcosm of the twentieth-century world as it might have been seen through the eyes of a distinct and wildly funny protagonist.
