Synopsis
Bob Slocum was living the American dream. He had a beautiful wife, three lovely children, a nice house...and all the mistresses he desired. He had it all -- all, that is, but happiness. Slocum was discontent. Inevitably, inexorably, his discontent deteriorated into desolation until...something happened. Something Happened is Joseph Heller's wonderfully inventive and controversial second novel satirizing business life and American culture. The story is told as if the reader was overhearing the patter of Bob Slocum's brain -- recording what is going on at the office, as well as his fantasies and memories that complete the story of his life. The result is a novel as original and memorable as his Catch-22., From the bestselling author of Catch-22 , Joseph Heller's wonderfully inventive second novel Something Happened takes a satirical look at business life and American culture.

  • Enjoyably relatable

    Having started work in corporate America the year this book was published, although in a different industry, it’s like reading a documentary, a retrospective, of many of the things I observed and experienced. Technology and styles change, people don’t.

  • anything could have happened so this title captures all

    bought this book because it is one of Kurt Vonneguts favorites, and after reading Slaughter House Five I wanted to keep going in that mind set.
