LIVE FOREVER, OR DIE IN THE ATTEMPT – Joseph Heller / Rise above principle and do what’s right.

Every writer I know has trouble writing.

Maybe, here you too can consider a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge or along the scenic Brooklyn Heights promenade. It offers attractions for every type of traveler. Something special? Head for Williamsburg, where to hear live music and shop for vintage threads. In Brooklyn, Park Slope is the leading light of the borough’s classic incarnation where visitors will enjoy its independent book and record stores. The 35-seat, simple yet elegant space is overseen by an attentive, accommodating staff. At Fonda restaurant http://fondarestaurant.com/park-slope/ Roberto brings more than two decades of experience to cooking up braised pork adobo and duck-filled fresh corn tortillas. Just around these places, a kid has honed his creativity, becoming a famous writer.

When he was only five years old, his father, a bakery-truck driver, died after a surgical operation. Growing, JOSEPH HELLER developed his wisecracking humor writing style while growing up near a famous amusement park in Brooklyn. In 1945, after he left the military, he married and began his college education. He was also highly regarded for his other works, where major theme throughout his writing is the conflict that occurs when individuals interact with such powerful institutions. He died of on a December day, 1999, in East Hampton (New York).

During World War II, he flew combat missions as a bombardier with the U.S. Air Force. After receiving an M.A. at Columbia University, he studied at the University of Oxford, and worked as promotion manager for McCall’s, meanwhile writing Catch-22 in his spare time. His satirical novel was a popular success (also film version appeared in 1970). JOSEPH HELLER was born into a May day, 1923, in Brooklyn (New York), becoming American writer whose novel Catch22 was one of the most significant works of protest literature after World War II.

His 1961 novel (that sprang from his experience as a W.W. II bombardier), mystified many of the publishing professionals, but it would eventually be recognized as one of the greatest anti-war books ever written. It was August 15, 1944, JOSEPH HELLER was about to fly his second mission of the day. That morning, he had been ordered to attack enemy near St. Tropez (France), with cloud formations had prevented them from dropping their bombs. Catch22 developed a cult following with its dark surrealism, centring on a antihero Captain and a mysterious Air Force regulation that asserts that a man is considered insane if he willingly continues to fly dangerous combat missions.
