Catch-22

I really liked this book. It's a very cynical read however for me personally it resonates with my attitudes and disillusionment with the US government, ineffective elected officials, and the military industrial complex. Running the gauntlet from hilarity on a surreal level (some chapters read more like an Abbot and Costello routine) to deeply disturbing tragedy the book unearths a lot of deep questions and contradictions about the way we view life, death, and war.

I can see how this book is pretty divisive, I was pretty turned off after a few chapters because I hadn't quite gotten into the more surreal aspects of it however I'm really glad I pushed through.
