It started a bit boring, but once you got to know all the characters I actually really enjoyed this book. It's quite a different storyline and the characters are not the average characters you read in most books which I really appreaciated.
It's a sarcastic and comical view of the behind the scenes of the war and given a what really happens perspective. The book is divided into chapters of all the characters and their story and input of the situation which is very clever. Even though at time the story was quite sad because many lives were being lost due to ego's and boredom, it was written in a comical way so you never really felt bad. The author made the war seem funny which is I imagine quite a talent.
I enjoyed it because it gave me a new perspective on the war and took it from another point of view. It was on the list of one of the all time greatest books and I do believe it deserves to be on there. The catch 22 is throughout the book and it is quite amusing to find out what it's about.
Recommended read.
