Abstract

. The black humor in American literature received extensive attention of scholars and writers. Because its unique artistic characteristics and artistic charm make it not only become a huge development in the literature, also make readers rethink from the perspective of social and historical reflection in the process of reading. This article analyzes the artistic characteristic of Joseph Heller's representative work Catch 22 and expresses the important role of the black humor in American literature in the expression of human emotions.
