Description

Divisive until the end, Christopher Hitchens was one of this generation's greatest thinkers. These interviews represent highlights from his remarkable career. This selection of interviews showcases the remarkable career of one of this generation's greatest and most divisive thinkers-featuring a foreword by Stephen Fry. " . . . pulls together some of Hitchens's greatest dialogues, each sparkling with intelligence and wit." -New York Times Book Review If someone says I'm doing this out of faith, I say, Why don't you do it out of conviction? One of his generation's greatest public intellectuals, and perhaps its fiercest, Christopher Hitchens was a brilliant interview subject. This collection-which spans from his early prominence as a hero of the Left to his controversial support for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan toward the end of his life-showcases Hitch's trademark wit on subjects as diverse as his mistrust of the media, his love of literature, his dislike of the Clintons, and his condemnation of all things religious. Beginning with an introduction and tribute from his longtime friend Stephen Fry, this collection culminates in Hitchens's fearless final interview with Richard Dawkins, which shows a man as unafraid of death as he was of everything in life.
