Stuck On: "Catch 22"
I had to read BRave New World for yr 12 English I still dont know what to think of it. A lot of things that happen in the book are happening now, but in a lot of ways they are kinda justified now, where they aren't in the book. I dunno the people in the book while shallow and superficial are happy in a way, does that make it a bad system. What do you reckon?
Also finished Catch 22, I think it will be one of my favourite books ever. While it is genuinely funny a lot of incidences in the book bring war into perspective. I love Yossarian's friend trying to be bored as much as he can.
