Catch-22 Disorder
In class everyone talks about how Catch-22 is so confusing and there seems to be no order, etc. I was thinking that maybe this is to show how the people in the war felt. War is most of the time lacking in order and, as shown by the dead guy in the tent, somethings are never in order. I just think if it was easy to read and in chronological order we would not get the same feelings and reactions to the book.

good insight! I agree =]
ReplyDeleteNice way of putting it Shannon. I agree. The chaos that goes on in the book makes the book what it is. It wouldn't be the same book if we took out all the confusion, sarcasim and chaotic order.
