I really want to read it, but it's so old a copy- all small, dog-eared with dark yellow paper.
Should I read it? I kinda want to throw it away and buy a new copy.

It's one of the best books ever written, so you should probably read it. Save the old one, and buy a new copy for reading purposes.

Should I try to read the chapters in order, or as they're presented?

Agreeance on one of the best books ever. I don't care if you read the old yellowed copy or a new one though.

Catch-22 ending / spoilerYossarian is stabbed by Natley's girlfriend. While in surgery, he remembers when Snowden was killed. Major Danby informs Yossarian he can go home if he sells out and becomes a stooge of Colonel Cathcart. After talking with Danby and the chaplain, Yossarian runs off from the hospital. |

It's the quality of the novel versus the lack of quality of the copy.
I mean, the copy is so yellow and small and gross, all eaten-up. |

Asshole.
I don't think there's anything to spoil though. Catch-22 isn't super-chronological or anything. |

Aren't you smart enough to know what's in it without reading it?
