Milo And Yossarian Yossarian And Milo Game
370 words
Joseph Heller, in his Catch- 22, satirizes the
lunacies and catches of war and the military. This
world which Yossarian and Milo inhabit is a game
to be played very carefully. That the craziness of
war is a game can be supported by the fact that
Milo and Yossarian both win, but each having and
utilizing a different strategy. " Milo and
Yossarian came from fundamentally different
con-man traditions, both pressed into new
extremes. The contrast in styles can be summed up

Number Of Missions Colonel Cathcart

The extremely powerful characterization used in
Catch 22 depicts what Heller feels to be the
frivolousness and insanity of war, as well as
portraying Yossarian, the main character, as the
anti-war hero. The two internal changes that shape
Yossarian's character are when he goes from being
obedient and brave to being disobedient and
afraid, and ultimately to being disobedient and
brave. Heller purposely delineates Yossarian as
insane, and the others sane, and then after
Yossarian transforms into b...
