There's only one catch---Catch 22! It's a legal loophole that means just when you're sure you've won....you lose! Catch 22 is as revealing today as when it was first published. Otrageous, bawdy, hilarious, it expresses the concerns of an entire generation in its black comedy and "Catch 22" has stepped into our language to stand for all the absurdities of our age.
