ARGUABLY Essays by Christopher Hitchens

Fans of clear, concise criticism and writing with a perfectly presented point of view will thoroughly enjoy this collection from acclaimed essayist Christopher Hitchens. Narrator Simon Prebble delivers each line of this remarkable work with the precision of a diamond cutter. Prebble’s pacing and authoritative tone mirror Hitchens’s intrepid observations, and while one may not agree with every argument presented, one is guaranteed hours of extraordinary writing and wit in the face of opposing opinions from one of the great minds of the last forty years. Sadly, Hitchens faces his greatest battle after a recent cancer diagnosis, and he acknowledges his possible premature demise. He’s met this latest challenge with the same hardheaded determination he displays in his essays, making ARGUABLY even more timely and urgent. R.O.
