Scattered. marginal foxing to the prelims and terminal leaves. Fine cloth copy in a near fine. very slightly edge-nicked and dust-dulled dust wrapper (NOT price-clipped). now mylar-sleeved. Remains particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight. bright. clean and sharp-cornered.; 8vo 8' - 9' tall; 443 pages; Subjects; World War. 1939-1945 - United States - Fiction. The phrase. now maddeningly misused by politicians and DJs alike. came from this wonderfully dark and cynical anti-war novel of the 1960s. (Catch-22 states that a man can be exempted from bombing missions if he is mad; but that the desire to be exempted is proof that he is sane.) The novel is as funny as it is bitter.Weight in Kg appr.: Keywords: Price: EUR 295.00 = appr. US$ 320.62 Seller: MW Books - Book number: 222282 |
