Bob Slocum was a promising executive. He had an attractive wife, three children, a nice house, and as many mistresses as he desired.

And then something happened. . .

Review:
"It is splendidly put together and hypnotic to read. It is as clear and hard-edged as a cut diamond. Mr. Heller's concentration and patience are so evident on every page that one can only say that "Something Happened" is at all points precisely what he hoped it would be" (New York Times Kurt Vonnegut)
"I used to think Catch-22 was my best novel until I read Kurt Vonnegut's review of Something Happened. Now I think Something Happened is." (Joseph Heller)
Book Description:
"I used to think Catch-22 was my best novel until I read Kurt Vonnegut's review of Something Happened. Now I think Something Happened is." (Joseph Heller)
Considered by some to be an even finer achievement than Catch-22, this is Heller's funny, honest and tragic tale of a failed American dream.
