Number of Pages 3

This research paper: This is a 3 page paper discussing business, political, historical and cultural aspects of Joseph Heller’s novel “Good as Gold”. American writer Joseph Heller (1923-1999) is probably best known for his anti-war novel “Catch-22” written in 1961. Born of poor Jewish parents however, Heller often reflected on his cultural heritage and its place in modern American society especially in the novel “Good as Gold” written in 1979. The protagonist, English professor Bruce Gold “tries to regain the Jewishness he has lost” throughout his involvement with presidential public relations (Books, 2000). Heller, through the use of puns and verbal games which are considered suitable for the Washington environment, manages to incorporate not only an interesting storyline for Gold but also interesting and significant business, historical and cultural references for his readers. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
