Divisive until the end, Christopher Hitchens was one of this generation's greatest thinkers. These interviews represent highlights from his remarkable career.
Christopher Hitchens (1949-2011) was a prolific columnist, literary critic, essayist, and a famously combative and witty speaker. He was renowned for his staunch atheism, his criticisms of everyone from Henry Kissinger to Mother Theresa, and his controversial support of the Iraq War. A bestselling author who published over 30 books, including God is Not Great, and contributed to The Nation, The Atlantic, and Vanity Fair, Hitchens was 62 when he died from complications relating to esophageal cancer.
“As part of its 'Last Interview' series, Melville House pulls
together some of Hitchens’s greatest dialogues, each sparkling with
intelligence and wit.”
—NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
“This new collection of Hitchens interviews works both as a good
summary of his breadth of interests and as a reminder of the
difficulties of classifying his work–which may well be why much of
it continues to be compelling reading.”
