An Analysis of Catch 22 by Joseph Heller Catch 22, by Joseph Heller, is a critique of the society that we live in. Whoever is proud of what we have advanced to, and is unwilling to look at it in a negative light, would find this book very subversive. It threatens and criticizes the way of living of most who pride themselves in living a modern life. Heller shows through the ridiculousness of war how misguided much …

…and blue and Fourth of July celebrations this could be an insult. They might feel this book is subversive to the American dream that people like Yossarian have fought wars for. They are scared to face the truth and prefer to believe in the institutions that have been in place for hundreds of years without a second thought. To except that something is wrong in our culture would rock their souls too much. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
