Closing Time
the Sequel to CATCH-22
by Joseph Heller
1994, Simon & Schuster
Trade Paperback, 464 pages
In Closing Time, Joseph Heller revisits the characters from Catch-22, now nearing the end of their lives and the century, alongside the entire WWII generation. Yossarian, Milo Minderbinder, the chaplain, and new characters like little Sammy Singer and the towering Lew are united in their twilight years, facing not the Germans but the inevitability of The End.
With the same sharp humor as Catch-22, Closing Time expertly critiques the American landscape of the past fifty years, exposing the absurdity in politics, the decay of society and American cities, and the greed and hypocrisy of our business and culture.
