«Good as Gold» is Joseph Heller's satirical novel, published by Pocket in paperback (464 pages, in English).
Bruce Gold, a middle-aged Jewish professor in New York, sees his family and academic life totter when he receives a tempting offer to join Washington. The author uses irony to discuss politics, Judaism, family, and ambition, with the acerbic humor that characterizes his work.
For readers of political satire and acerbic humor, especially those who know the author from Catch-22.
Joseph Heller was an American author of novels, short stories, plays, and screenplays. His best-known work is his debut novel Catch-22 (1961), a satire on war and bureaucracy, whose title has become a synonym for an absurd or contradictory choice. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature at least twice, in 1972 and 1975.
