What Is Catch-22 About?
The premise of Catch-22 without spoilers.
Set on the World War II airbase on Italy’s Pianosa Island, bombardier John Yossarian fights to stay alive, keep his sanity and get home, but every attempt is thwarted by the absurd, self‑serving bureaucracy of his superiors. The endless paperwork, ill‑fated missions and the infamous “catch‑22” rule keep him trapped in a nightmarish cycle.
