Is it really truth? Is it possible that he might be an foreign spy?
Parson doubts all the time about everything. At the end he doubts even about existence of god. Sometimes he terryfied finds himself thinking very viciously about his wife. But the most important character of the book is Yossarian. He is not a hero. Just by saying that he is a soldier we might lie. He is just guy who was so unlucky that he had to join the army and cross the ocean to join the war he doesn’t care about. He doesn’t want to defeat enemy, he doesn’t want to be hero, he just wants to survive. At any cost. He hates that damned Catch-22 that obstructs him to go home. Anytime it looks that he’s going home, there’s a little problem- catch-22. It solves any problem swabs may have with the crew. For example anyone who is mad has to leave the army. And it’s clear that anyone who continues risking his life every day is mad. But to go home he has to request it. And (by catch-22) in this moment he’s not mad any more. It’s just the example, but it represents logic of catch-22. But finally Yossarian becomes really mad. It’s not hard to understant while imaging his friend Snowden dying in the back of the bomber with huge hole in his chest. Yossarian had a wonderful view on Snowden’s liver, stomach, kidney and much more interesting things inside.
It’s so much to write about. But it would have no effect compared to the experience you gain after reading this book. It’s really wonderful!.
