"If someone says I’m doing this out of faith, I say, Why don’t
you do it out of conviction?" —CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS

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.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Christopher Hitchens

Christopher Hitchens (Portsmouth, 13 de abril de 1949 – Houston, 15 de dezembro de 2011) foi um jornalista, escritor e crítico literário. «Nunca haverá ninguém como o Christopher», escreveu a Vanity Fair no seu obituário, sublinhando ainda outras qualidades: «Crítico incomparável, sagaz, destemido e bon vivant.»
Hitchens licenciou-se em Oxford. Considerado um dos «100 melhores intelectuais do mundo» pela Foreign Policy e pela Britain's Prospect, escreveu para as mais prestigiadas publicações, como o New Statesman, London Evening Standard, London's Daily Express, The Nation, Harper's, The Spectator, The Times Literary Supplement, New York Newsday, The Atlantic e a revista Slate.
Polémico, irreverente e controverso até ao fim dos seus dias, era frequentemente referido como um dos quatro «Cavaleiros do Apocalipse», a par dos ateístas Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris e Daniel Dennett. Além de Cartas a um Jovem Dissidente, foi autor ou coautor de mais de 30 livros, sendo Deus Não É Grande a sua obra de referência.
