He is a leftist who is not "left" enough, a rightist who is not "right" enough, and a postmodernist who is not "post" enough.

This book intends to use the perspective of "novel ethics" to "travel" through Joseph Heller's novels, allowing theory and works to communicate with each other, so that in this way, their respective possibilities can be better developed. Novel ethics is a new ethical criticism approach specifically aimed at novels, and this is its first systematic practice. This idea draws on theoretical perspectives such as narratology and rhetoric, and divides novels into different levels such as story, narrative, and rhetoric. Therefore, the ethical issues faced in novels are also divided into issues at different levels such as story ethics, narrative ethics, and rhetoric ethics. This is also the first comprehensive interpretation of Heller's novels from an ethical perspective. Ethical issues are one of the important issues in Heller's novels, not only in the themes of the novels, but also in the artistic form of the novels. From the perspective of systematic novel ethics, this book comprehensively investigates the multi-faceted ethical consciousness conveyed by Heller's novels from different aspects such as macro and micro, content and form of works, external and internal text, etc., And finally reaches a possible conclusion: what Heller's novels intend to show is a postmodern "survival ethics" concept.
