Catch-22

Catch-22 is possibly the funniest book I have ever read. The Hitchiker's Guide books were previously the funniest books I had ever read, and might even still be, but the humour strikes me as kind of similar anyway.

I want to see the film adaption of Catch-22, but it strikes me from reading the book that it would be very difficult to adapt faithfully. It just wouldn't make a whole lot of sense as a picture, considering the nature of the book. But anyway.

The best part so far (I haven't finished yet) was the description of the moaning incident in a mission briefing, and Major --- De Coverley's entrance in to the cafeteria.
