Catch-22

“Yes you did,” Orr insisted equably. “You asked them not to
assign you to any plane piloted by me, Dobbs or Huple because you didn’t have
the confidence in us at the controls. Orr is one of Yossarian’s friends (even
if Yossarian wants to kill him). Orr kept asking him if he could fly with Orr
because it would be a blast. Yossarian doesn’t want to because on every single
one of his missions Orr crashes and Yossarian doesn’t want to die.
I haven’t read as much of the book as I should of. The
things that have happened so far is that Orr, a great friend of Yossarian, has
been lost at sea after a crash landing forcing him to land in the ocean. Also
Colonel Cathcart is starting to question life as we know it.
I think that the best part about this reading is that I was
able to relate things in the book about real life with my dad. When my dad was
reading the book he said that it made his head do a 180 degree turn. After he
read the book he had a different feel about life. I would strongly with my dad. My dad still thinks that some things in the book are stupid but make sense.
Nice post, really deep thought :P
ReplyDeleteReally interesting post. Your thoughts are well organized and you made your post fun to read. I like the character's name. It is very unique name. And seems like your dad also enjoyed the book.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a very deep book to totally change someones perspective on life. It seems like Orr and Yossarian have a strange friendship. I wonder why Orr would still e a pilot if he never had a successful flight.
