Description
New York, NY: Simon & Schuster (1994)
Limited Edition. Signed.
Fine, in fine dust jacket.
A darkly comic and ambitious sequel to the American classic Catch-22.
In
Closing Time
, Joseph Heller returns to the characters of
Catch-22
, now coming to the end of their lives and the century, as is the entire generation that fought in World War II: Yossarian and Milo Minderbinder, the chaplain, and such newcomers as little Sammy Singer and giant Lew, all linked, in an uneasy peace and old age, fighting not the Germans this time, but The End.
Closing Time
deftly satirizes the realities and the myths of America in the half century since WWII: the absurdity of our politics, the decline of our society and our great cities, the greed and hypocrisy of our business and culture -- with the same ferocious humor as
Catch-22
.
Closing Time
is outrageously funny and totally serious, and as brilliant and successful as
Catch-22
itself, a fun-house mirror that captures, at once grotesquely and accurately, the truth about ourselves.
