Description
i read Catch 22 [the book, not the band] this year in school & fell in love with iti even bought myself a copy haha
anyways, i've been wanting to make a Catch shirt for a while
& finally got around to it
sorry about the bad picture of the shirt, i'll probably put a better pic in later =]
fun fact:
"Yossarian Lives." was the promotion slogan for Catch 22
a bunch of people created stickers, pins, wrote it on walls, bathroom stalls, anywhere to start a buzz about the book and to get people asking questions
so i thought it'd be fun to keep that alive
the funny thing is that we don't actually know if yossarian lives or not at the endTT

lolz I know it's like I hope that the book may relent and spare me a few pages more, but to no avail it never happens... like with Harry potter 7 it was the same thing.
I was catatonic after I finished that one. But I suppose I am that way with favorite books over and over.
I'm wierd like that. I'm glad someone understands.

i know, it's pretty tragic sometimes :[
awww HP is completely understandable though! we grew up with those books for goodness sakes
one of my friends actually read the whole series over again when the 7th came out to prolong the ending a bit more haha
haha yeah, it's always fun to find another person who gets it haha

I love the shirt. ANd the book; the movie not so much. But as you've been told, Yossarian does indeed live, escape to Sweden and becomes an item with Nurse Duckett; Mr. Heller wrote a sequel to Catch 22 called Closing TIme. Its about Yossarian in his old age.

i haven't seen the movie yet, but yeah i heard it was pretty bad & Closing Time is on my to-read list
thanks =]

maskedfire In reply to lightningbug [2008-02-14 03:35:59 +0000 UTC]
Yup yup! The movie has really good actors (Alan Arkin as Yossarian and Jon Voight as Milo), but its just horrible compared to the book.

lightningbug In reply to maskedfire [2008-02-14 03:44:53 +0000 UTC]
i figure that it'd be incredibly difficult to make a movie out of the book with the way its "time line" is set up

Yeah. It's inaccuracy and role-switching or leaving characters out completely was what really got me. >_<

WOW! i need one of these! I love catch 22... see if you can get hold of closing time. It's the sequel. It's about the end of the world and is completely beautiful.

Eee. Cool. Catch 22's probably my favourite book. Not sure if you've read the sequel yet (bringing up because it's in the comments above ) but it's pretty good. Different, a lot more surreal, but good.

One of the best books ever. Do you remember Milo's egg scheme where he keeps trading and selling eggs? My friend sat down for an hour and figured the whole thing out and it works.

Did you know there's a sequel? I believe it's called Closing Time.
