Joseph Heller's World War II satire, ""Catch-22"", poses the moral dilemma of how to remain sane in an insane world. When it was first published in 1961, the novel not only became a modern-day classic, but it also introduced the term 'catch-22' to everyday vernacular. This installment in the ""Bloom's Guides"" series offers a varied selection of critical essays, and an annotated bibliography that collectively provide an ideal critical companion for readers hoping to broaden their appreciation of Heller's modern masterpiece.
