New Releases by Joseph Heller

Enkele Amerikaanse oorlogsveteranen uit de Tweede Wereldoorlog ontmoeten elkaar na 50 jaar weer: ze houden zich allemaal bezig met absurde kwesties.

A sequel to Catch-22, the 1961 humorous bestseller about a group of American airmen during World War II. The novel follows many of the same characters in their current escapades--mainly to do with selling defense equipment to the Pentagon. In addition, there are their views on the decline of America.

Roman biblico-comique, dans lequel l''auteur s''en prend au Dieu-qui-sait et initie le lecteur ordinaire "aux obsessions du peuple du Livre". Comme l''écrit Nicole Zand dans ##Le Monde## du 8 novembre 1985, p. 32, il s''agit moins de la vie du roi David racontée par lui-même (alors qu''il attend la mort) qu''un "commentaire écrit par un exégète de Brooklyn, fanatique des Marx Brothers". Premier public concerné: les Juifs américains.

In een combinatie van bijbelse taal en Amerikaans slang wordt verhaald over David, Koning der Joden die op zijn sterfbed ligt en mijmert over zijn leven en over de wereld.
