A propos du livre

Revue de presse

god Is Not Great: "Hitchens is a grand rhetorician, and his double-barrelled shotgun of a book is high entertainment... As with Voltaire, his scornful laughter is a powerful weapon." - Christopher Hart, Sunday Times. "The anti-religion case has never been put so well, so comprehensively or so definitively as in this razor-sharp book... Outstanding." - A.C. Grayling, Independent on Sunday. Arguably: "Essays on everything... remind us what we've lost in Hitchens - someone to provoke assent, outrage, laughter and thought." - Sunday Telegraph. Mortality: "A trenchant, learned, iconoclastic and splendidly witty commentator on public life... unremittingly elegant, a master of graceful prose" - John Banville --Sunday Telegraph

Présentation de l'éditeur

Christopher Hitchens was an unparalleled, prolific writer, who raised the polemical essay to a new art form, over a lifetime of thinking and debating the defining issues of our times. As an essayist he contributed to the New Statesman, Atlantic Monthly, London Review of Books, TLS and Vanity Fair. Any publication of a volume of Hitchens' essays was a major event on both sides of the Atlantic. Now comes the last of the last; a volume of Hitchens' previously uncollected essays, covering the themes that define Hitchens the thinker: literature, religion and politics. These essays remind us, once more, of the fierce, brilliant and trenchant voice of Christopher Hitchens.
