I agree, Cindy. I didn't read Catch 22 either. I doubt that I'm younger than
you. I graduated from high school in 1960. And I do remember the song you
referred to.
I'd love to read Catch 22, because it's a bit of history. And Joseph Heller
never wrote anything to match it.

Well, Mickey,
To reverse the words of a song which you're probably too young to remember, "Dearie, I'much older than you."
I checked on Amazon.com, because I remember it being required reading whenI was in school, although I don't think in my class, and I remember it's being published long before you were in high school. It turns out, according to the copyright page visible on amazon, that it was originally published in 1937, and Rosten renewed the copyright in 1965. A paperback was published in 1968.
I also remember the movie Captain Newman, M.D. I didn't read the book, so I wasn't disappointed in the movie. It also had a young Tony Curtis.
Another book that I haven't read and really must, because it's become a modern classic, is Joseph Heller's Catch 22. I just checked and I see it's not in the collection either. With the title phrase having become often used and popular in today's vocabulary, that should also be added to the collection
Cindy
