MASH: A Novel about Three Army Doctors by Richard Hooker
2.0
Picked this book up as an impulse. I have seen the Robert Altman movie, and saw the TV show in syndication, so I was curious about the source material that inspired them both.
The book was quite similar to the film, and it was very episodic. There was not a great story arc, but a series of moments, some funny, some sad, and some just strange and ridiculous. I imagine that was the point, and showed how some people dealt with the trauma of war when they were not patching people back together. It is a very quick read, but having seen the film, it was not anything new.
