"I was surprised by how much I enjoyed some of these stories. Though the real gems were those chapters of Catch 22 that were not in the final publication, especially Love, Dad."
"Would've been less if not for The Death of the Dying Swan and From Dawn to Dusk.
Although the first two are probably my favorites of the lot, I looked through the table of contents again and realized that I also loved MacAdam's Log (so very much) and Girl from Greenwich and Love, Dad... just to name the first handful that come to mind.
I should say, maybe, it's minus one star because I could barely drag myself through Catch 23 and The Day Bush Left the White House. For Heller's sake, I'm glad he didn't live to see Bush Jr in office."
