- Something Happened is Joseph Heller's second novel (published in 1974, thirteen years after Catch-22). Its main character and narrator is Bob Slocum, a businessman who engages in a stream of consciousness narrative about his job, his family, his childhood, his sexual escapades, and his own psyche. While there is an ongoing plot about Slocum preparing for a promotion at work, most of the book focuses on detailing various events from his life, ranging from early childhood to his predictions for the future, often in non-chronological order and with little if anything to connect one anecdote to the next. Near the end of the book, Slocum starts worrying about the state of his own sanity as he finds himself hallucinating or remembering events incorrectly, suggesting that some or all of the novel might be the product of his imagination, making him an unreliable narrator.
- Something Happened (Alguma coisa mudou no Brasil) é o segundo livro de Joseph Heller.
- 出了毛病是美国著名作家约瑟夫·海勒的第二部长篇小说。写于1974年。小说写一个公司职员的精神苦闷。反映了美国中产阶级的心理状态，作者意在反《第22条军规》之道而行之，后者写外部势力对人的压迫和腐蚀，前者则注重写人物的内心精神生活。小说主人公生活虽然富裕，却得不到精神愉快，到处充满着精神危机。小说只是主人公“我”的自述。这个姓斯洛克姆的中年犹太人罗嗦的讲自己的生活、身边人的生活，生活中的一切琐事谈到了，社会生活，政治文化这样的国家大事也谈到了。虽然他生活富裕，是大公司中的中上层，但斯洛克姆不可遏制地害怕和绝望，一切事情都让他深深地沮丧、疲惫、恐惧、绝望。他整日忧心忡忡，惶惶不可终日，总担心要“出了毛病”，直到自己的惟一的希望和寄托——9岁的幼子——在车祸中受伤，然后又在自己担心过度而用力过大的搂抱中窒息而亡。小说以苦恼的笑料来表现真正出了毛病的是这个社会，通过荒诞，畸形的描写来达到讽刺现实，映射政治的目的。
