Catch-22

Catch-22 mind map is War Literature based Novel. Catch-22 is a satirical novel written by Joseph Heller in the United States. Yosaira is promoted to captain after a mission in Ferrara, Italy, in which he flies back after missing a bridge and successfully destroys it, despite the loss of a squadron member. The "catch" in Catch-22 is a mysterious Army Air Forces regulation that states that if a man willingly continues to fly dangerous combat missions, he is considered insane, but that if he makes the necessary formal request to be relieved of such missions, the act of making the request proves that he is sane and thus ineligible to be relieved. Although its nonchronological structure may at first seem random, Catch-22 is highly structured. It is founded on a structure of free association; ideas run into one another through seemingly random connections. One of the titled "The Texan", ends with "everybody but the CID man, who had caught a cold from the fighter captain and come down with the pneumonia." The other titled "Clevinger", begins with "In a way, the CID man was pretty lucky because outside the hospital the war was still going on." The CID man connects the two titles like a free association bridge and eventually the title flows from the CID man to Clevinger.
