DESCRIPTION

The first UK edition of this work, in the original, translucent, unclipped dustwrapper.

Signed by Joseph Heller to the front free endpaper.

The sequel to sensational novel Catch-22, published thirty years after the first novel. A marvellous work of fiction, with the same old characters that made Catch-22 the remarkable masterpiece it is known for, but revised; older; wiser. 

A chilling depiction of the moral collapse of the Western world as well as very funny in its black comedy.

In the original publisher's illustrated paper covered boards. Externally lovely. Signed by the author to the front free endpaper, dated 7.11.94. The dustwrapper is unclipped and excellent with only minor shelfwear. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean.
