Catch-22.
Hi. I'm new here and I'm reading Catch-22 in my school.
My teacher gave me this assignment. Below is the assignment.
[Choose a character in the novel that you think needs some "psychological help." Take on a persona of a psychiatrist, counselor, etc.
What are some of the questions that you would want to ask this person?
Why?
How do you think the character would respond?
Develop at least 10 questions. After each question, determine what kind of answer the character would make and write that response. The question that follows should be a response to the character's answer to question 1. All of the remaining questions should be done the same way. ]
Now, I need help from you guys who have read the book. Here is what I have so far and tell me if it is a replica of Yossarian's character.
1. Do you not want to fly anymore missions?
I surely do not because I’m mentally crazy.
2. What makes you think that you’re mentally crazy?
I just want to go home and if you’re crazy, they let you go home.
3. But why do you want to go home? Don’t you want to fight for your country?
I don’t. Everyone’s trying to kill me.
4. Well, everyone’s trying to kill everyone. It is war, is it not?
Yes, but still, people are trying to kill me. They’re trying to poison me and shoot me down.
5. What do you think about the commander who raises the number of misions that you have to fly to go back home.
I think he’s a crazy lunatic who just wants to kill me.
Do you guys think it's good. Please give some comments and try to add more. I can't think of anything else.
Thank you.
Bye.
