Abstract

Kurt Vonnegut and Joseph Heller are well-known writers in America. Their representative works Slaughterhouse-Five and Catch 22 are the important works in 1960s’, which have strong features of black humor. The author makes comparison between these two novels from several aspects, such as, background, narrative manner, language logic and character making. In this way, the author wants to show the black humor features in these two works.
