TERRY H. BURNS
Special to The Jewish News

T

he truth be told, novelist
Joseph Heller isn't all that
concerned about his even-
tual place in the annals of
20th-century literature.
He figures, and maybe rightfully so,
that he secured his spot years ago -
when, following service in the U.S.
Army Air Force, he penned the anti-
war classic Catch-22. And let's not for-
get his other significant tomes, includ-
ing Something Happened, his personal
favorite, and Good as Gold.
Those two novels, like his recently
published autobiography, Now and
Then: From Coney Island to Here
(Knopf; $24), have roots in his own
past.
Now and Then looks back with bit-
tersweetness at his family, Coney
Island childhood, wartime service as
an Air Force bombardier and the
beginnings of his life as a writer.
One surprising effect of writing
the book, he says, is the realization,
only now, of how much he misses
his father (who died when the
author was 5). He's open about his
psychanalysis as well as his marriage,
which ended, after 35 years, in
divorce. He met his current wife
while reckperating from Guillan-
Barre syndrome in the hospital —
she was one of his nurses.
While also the author of five addi-
tional books and a play, Heller
nonetheless will forever be linked, for
better or worse, with a single work —
Catch-22, a title that has become part
of the American lexicon and a nation's
collective consciousness.
"It will be in my obituary," chuck-
Terry H. Burns writes for Copley News
Service. Sandee Brawarsky contributed
to this story.

autobiography,
"Catch-22"
author
Joseph Heller
writes to live
and
lives to write. io

les the 75-year-old Heller. But that's
not all bad, he admits.
After thinking about it for more
than three decades, Heller says he real-
izes that Catch-22 — not to mention
a certain author — deserves as much
high praise and respect as it can
muster.
."By now, I am forced to admit, I
feel it deserves it," says Heller. As the
years pass, "I get more and more
pleased with myself," he says, with a
complete lack of guile.
Heller, in fact, truly appreciates his
success, and unlike many writers of his
generation, isn't ashamed to admit
that he's having fun.
Although Heller writes to live ancall
lives to write, he insists that his suc-
cess, like that of many others, was the
result of "timing and coincidence."
Most people, except for the wealthy,
don't have very much free will, he sug-
gests.
