Letters to a Young Contrarian

Letters to a Young Contrarian - Christopher Hitchens Through the years reading Christopher Hitchens has been hit or miss for me. [b:Mortality|13529055|Mortality|Christopher Hitchens|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1337177391s/13529055.jpg|18446960] was amazing, but many other works basically unaccessible to me perhaps because they are all too cerebral and the subjects fail to interest me. I remember Hitchens on a [a:Bill Maher|18481|Bill Maher|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1206675838p2/18481.jpg] show on HBO where he was a guest and argued with the audience for almost the entire program. I did not appreciate that behavior then, but do so now after reading this book. I cannot more highly recommend this book to any person who wants to think for themselves and stand apart from the crowd. Hitchens was courageous in both life and death. He is sorely missed.
