Sliight bumpat head of spine.About the book: Americas foremost rhetorical pugilist. John Giuffo, The Village VoiceThe death of Christopher Hitchens in December 2011 prematurely silenced a voice that was among the most admired of contemporary writers. For more than forty years, Hitchens delivered to numerous publications on both sides of the Atlantic essays that were astonishingly wide-ranging and provocative. The judges for the PEN/Diamonstein-Spielvogel Award for the Art of the Essay, posthumously bestowed on Hitchens, praised him for the way he wrote with fervor about the books and writers he loved and with unbridled venom about ideas and political figures he loathed. He could write, the judges went on to say, with undisguised brio, mining the resources of the language as if alert to every possibility of color and inflection.

His writings include critiques of public figures Bill Clinton, Henry Kissinger,and others. He regarded concepts of a god as a totalitarian belief that impedes individual freedom. He argued in favor of free expression and scientific discovery, and that it was superior as an ethical code of conduct for human civilization. Derived from a Kirkus review: Hitherto uncollected journalistic pieces, in which Hitchens takes stock of the world.
