This just in from CBS News NYC: Joseph Heller, author of Catch-22, is
dead. I haven't found any links providing more details--it seems he had a
heart attack last night at his home on Long Island.
Just heard a report on another New York news show. Heller was 76.
I remember that Henry Musikar once quipped that Heller was "unipolar."
Whether or not that was the case, the satiric expanse of Catch-22 simply
blew my mind. It's not very far from the Zone, eh?
