Catch 22
A darkly comic and ambitious sequel to the American classic Catch-22. Joseph Heller revisits the unforgettable characters of Catch-22, now facing the twilight of their lives and the end of the century. The generation that fought in World War II—Yossarian, Milo Minderbinder, the chaplain, along with newcomers little Sammy Singer and giant Lew—are bound together in uneasy peace and old age, fighting not the Germans this time, but the inevitability of The End. Closing Time deftly satirizes the realities and the myths of postwar America with the same ferocious humor as his masterpiece, Catch-22, exploring the absurdity of our politics, the decline of our society and great cities, and the greed and hypocrisy at the heart of our business and culture. Outrageously funny yet deadly serious, and as brilliant as Catch-22 itself, Closing Time is a fun-house mirror reflecting, at once grotesquely and accurately, who we truly are.

World Without End
The sequel to The Pillars of the Earth, set two hundred years later in the same English town of Kingsbridge. The Black Death, the Hundred Years War, and the struggle of ordinary people against the power of church and nobility. An equally sweeping and page-turning epic from one of the great storytellers.
