Book Summary

Catch-22 is a satirical novel by American author Joseph Heller, published in 1961. Set during World War II, it follows Captain John Yossarian, a U.S. Army Air Forces bombardier stationed on the island of Pianosa in the Mediterranean Sea. Yossarian becomes increasingly desperate to escape the war, but he faces a paradoxical military regulation known as "Catch-22," which states that airmen who are considered insane can be grounded, but if they request to be grounded, their request proves they are sane and therefore ineligible to be relieved from duty. This creates a no-win situation for Yossarian and his fellow soldiers, who are trapped in a cycle of bureaucratic absurdity and mortal danger.
