Catch-22 chapter 39 - The Eternal City. Yossarian's journey through a hellish vision of night-time Rome which ends with him discovering that The Maid has been murdered by Arfy and being arrested by the MPs he thought had come for Arfy.
The sequel is just as good, though different in tone. It failed to make the same impact in terms of awards and mentions in book-of-the-year lists, but don't let that put you off.
