He (24) open either door he pleased; he was subject to no guidance or influence but that of impartial and incorruptible chance. If he opened the one, there came out

44、 was a farcical satire on life in the United States Army Air Force. Later I believed that Mr. Hellers target was modern war and all those who axe responsible for waging it. Still later it seemed that he was attacking social organization and anyone who derives power from it. But by the end of the boo
45、k it had become plain to me that it is no other phrase will do the human condition itself which is the object of Mr. Heller an outraged fury and disgust.A reviewer must always keep an anxious eye on the state of his currency. If he announces too many masterpieces he risks inflation (though it is som
46、etimes forgotten by some of us that the cowardice of perpetual crabbing (挑剔) receives its own kind of punishment). It does not seem many weeks since I was proclaiming that Malcolm Lowrys Under the Volcano is one of the great English novels of the century; and not long before that I was urging that a
47、ttention should be paid to the magnificent and neglected talent of William Gerhardi.But at the risk of inflation I cannot help writing that Catch-22 is the greatest satirical work in English since Erewhon. For the fact is that all my successive interpretations of this book now seem to have been accu
48、rate, even if the earlier ones were also incomplete. The book has an immense and devastating (讽刺的) theme, but this theme is illustrated, as it should be, by means of an observed reality.I am not suggesting that Catch - 22 is a realistic account of life in the wartime Air Force of America or any othe
49、r country. The method of satire is to inflate (放大) reality so that all its partially concealed blemishes (缺点) turn into monstrous and apparent deformations. The effect of good satire is to make us laugh with horror. And this means that social and person- al evils which are being satirized must have been there, and must be felt by the reader to be there even while he is laughing at the results of the satirists inflating imagination.（分数：12.00
