I nearly cut and pasted my favourite part of the book, but I realised that to do that bit justice the extract would have to be massive. Still the whole book can be found online here: http://www.math.rutgers.edu/~sujith/catch-22.txt
And my favourite bit includes this quote towards the beginning: "There were three members of the Action Board, the bloated colonel with the big fat mustache, Lieutenant Scheisskopf and Major Metcalf, who was trying to develop a steely gaze. As a member of the Action Board, Lieutenant Scheisskopf was one of the judges who would weigh the merits of the case against Clevinger as presented by the prosecutor. Lieutenant Scheisskopf was also the prosecutor. Clevinger had an officer defending him. The officer defending him was Lieutenant Scheisskopf."
