Literary jerk here-- Heller was famous for the wrong book. Catch-22 was fantastic, but his lesser-known novel, "Something Happened" is a masterpiece of stream of thought literary form. I could not recommend it more.

Another jerk here-- Something Happened is literally the worst book I have ever read. The title is nearly literally true, only one thing happens in its many hundreds of pages (by my hazy memory).

I am honestly sad to read that you feel that way. To each his own I guess :-)
