Extractions: Home - Robert M. Young What's New Search Feedback ... Human Relations, Authority and Justice DEADLY UNCONSCIOUS LOGICS IN JOSEPH HELLERS CATCH-22 by Robert M. Young Further info. Catch-22 is a black comedy novel about death, about what people do when faced with the daily likelihood of annihilation. For the most part what they do is try to survive in any way they can. The book begins, The island of Pianosa lies in the Mediterranean Sea eight miles south of Elba. That is the geographical location of the action. Much of the emotional plot of the book turns on the question of whos crazy, and I suggest that it is illuminating to look at its world in Kleinian terms. The location of the story in the inner world is the claustrum a space inside the psychic anus, at the bottom of the psychic digestive tract, where everyone lives perpetually in projective identification, and the only value is survival. If one is expelled from the claustrum, there are only two places to go: death or psychotic breakdown (Meltzer, 1992). What people do in these circumstances is to erect individual and institutional defences against the psychotic anxieties engendered by unconscious phantasies of the threat of annihilation. These defences are extreme, utterly selfish and survivalist. In certain institutional settings they are erected against death itself and correspond to what Joan Riviere called in her essay On the Genesis of Psychical Conflict in Early Infancy (1952), the deepest source of anxiety in human beings (1952, p. 43). She suggests that such helplessness against destructive forces within is ubiquitous and constitutes the greatest psychical danger-situation known to the human organism... (ibid.). Isabel Menzies Lyth argues that these anxieties are re-evoked in the work of nurses, where death is present and imminent. The objective situation confronting the nurse bears a striking resemblance to the phantasy situations that exist in every individual in the deepest and most primitive levels of the mind. The intensity and complexity of the nurses anxieties are to be attributed primarily to the peculiar capacity of the objective features of her work situation to stimulate afresh these early situations and their accompanying emotions (Lyth, 1959, pp. 46-7). There are such nurses in the perverse world of

Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Joseph Heller (1923-1999) American writer, who gained world fame with his satirical, anti-war novel CATCH-22 (1961), set in the World War II Italy. The book was partly based on Heller's own experiences and influenced among others Robert Altman's comedy M*A*S*H, and the subsequent long-running TV series, set in the Korean War. The phrase "catch-22" has entered the English language to signify a no-win situation, particularly one created by a law, regulation or circumstance. "All over the world, boys on every side of the bomb line were laying down their lives for what they had been told was their country, and no one seemed to mind, least of all the boys who were laying down their young lives. There was no end in sight." (from Catch-22 Joseph Heller war born in Brooklyn, New York, as the son of poor Jewish parents. His Russian-born father, who was a bakery truck driver, died in 1927. After graduating from Abraham Lincoln High School in 1941, Heller joined the Twelfth Air Force. He was stationed in Corsica, where he flew 60 combat missions as a B-25 bombardier. In 1949 Heller received his M.A. from Columbia University. He was a Fulbright scholar at Oxford in 1949-50. Heller worked as a teacher at Pennsylvania State University (1950-52), copywriter for the magazines Time Look (1956-58), and promotion manager for

http://www.abc.net.au/rn/arts/bwriting/heller.htm

Extractions: Joseph Heller - Closing Time Ramona Koval in conversation with American novelist and memoirist Joseph Heller, master of the absurd, so much so that the title of his first novel and most famous book 'Catch 22' has entered the English language as the word for an absurd and illogical concept. You might remember when Heller's hero, Yossarian is asked to fly on more dangerous World War Two bombing missions, the only way to get out of doing so is to plead insanity. But if you are insane, you wouldn't want to stop flying so you must be sane to want to stop, in which case you have to keep flying. That's Catch 22. The book is now considered a classic, and Heller went on to write six more darkly comic novels, including his latest, 'Closing Time' which charts the progress of Yossarian and the evil Milo minder bender and all the cast of the first novel, as they make their way in the inferno that is post-war America, New York to be precise. In his memoir, 'Now and Then', you can read about many of the locations that have found their way into Heller's fiction, especially coney Island, the place where Heller grew up and had so many of his formative experiences.
