I’m baffled by just how dark these past few chapters have been, only to end rather humorously. I was disgusted by Yossarian and Dunbar’s assault of Nurse Duckett, but I think you’d have to be crazy to not resonate with Yossarian once his new roommates arrive.

There were parts of this chunk that I just straight-up did not understand, but I think this is the sort of text where confusion is welcome.

Pretty good stuff so far—we began reading this in Contemporary Lit since last week and I forgot to log my progress until now. I love the switching between light humor and just abysmal, shell-shock-inducing dread.
