Not many writers introduce a phrase - let alone a whole idea - into the
language. In Catch-22, Joseph Heller invented a motif for the modern
world. The book shaped everything that came after it, establishing
Heller's reputation as one of the greatest American writers of the
twentieth century. But where did the author who was able to create that
novel come from? And what happened to those remarkable characters? In
Catch as Catch Can, Joseph Heller's stories are collected for the first
time, and clearly chart the development of a genius. From Heller's
recollections of his Coney Island childhood to the later stories of his
greatest creation, Yossarian, Catch as Catch Can is the last great work
of one of the twentieth century's most important literary figures
