Thank God Joseph Heller kept writing after Catch 22! - at least so that Picture This could get written - the ONLY drawback about this book being its TITLE!! This book is just what critics say -spellbinding. As well you get a firsthand feeling of who Rembrandt is in his time and place - which is made totally relevant to present time time and place as well as Greek time and place centuries prior - very zen! But the title is not very zen it does not do justice to this story. Heller had a story to tell and it is a mind blower that keeps on giving! But he honestly does not seem to know what to CALL this or his other works after Catch 22(which was a great title oddly enough!)
